Key: D
Introduction:
D Gm6
Once I loved such a shattering physician
Gm A7 D
Quite the best looking doctor in the state
D Gm6
He looked after my physical condition
Gm A7 D
And his bedside manner was great
Bm Gm6
When I'd gaze up and see him there above me
Gm A7 D
Looking less like a doctor than a Turk
Bm Gm6
I was tempted to whisper, "Do you love me
Gm A7 D
Or do you merely love your work?"
