G
[Verse 1]
G
And he sings when he mops, seems to help him a lot
G
Where there's uneven stairs Mr. Landlord is there
B/F# Em
Well, he mops all day, can't get away too long
B/F# E
And when he's through there's windows too
[Bridge]
D E
Then Nellie comes to see him
D E
With a straight face, she comes to see him
C G
And taking her favorite pen from her pocket
F E
She writes it down the things that she's found
[Chorus]
C E
And he always, sometimes gets a little nervous
C E
'Cause he'd like for her to stay for a day…
[Interlude]
D C E (x2)
G
[Verse 2]
G
”Would you care for a drink”
G
”This is business”, says she
G
”Tell me where are the vents for these apartments”
B/F# Em
So they go upstairs to inspect air
B/F# E
The air is good, it's really good up there
[Bridge]
D E
She's glad that he cares so much
D E
About the safety of electrical outlets
C G
And taking her favorite pen from her pocket
F E
She writes it down, the things that she's found
[Chorus]
C E
But she always sometimes gets a little nervous
C E
'Cause she'd like to stay with him for a day…
