INTRO: 

       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?' 

verse 1 
   A7      D         A7+          D6 
He said my bronchial tubes were entrancing 
      D       A7+             F#dim          A7 
My epiglottis filled him with glee  
          G        F#              F     Eb      B7  
He simply loved my larynx and went wild about my pharynx 
       Em7           A7    D  
But he never said he loved me  

verse 2 
   A7      D  A7+        D6  
He said my epidermis was darling 
             D        A7+           F#dim   A7  
And found my blood as blue as could be  
                G      F#             F          Eb    B7 
He went through wild ecstatics when I showed him my lymphatics 
       Em7           A7    D         D7  
But he never said he loved me   

G C Cm And though, no doubt, it was not very smart of me G D7 E7 I kept on a-wracking of my soul A A7+ D Dm To figure out why he loved every part of me A Gm6 A And yet not me as a whole
verse 3 A7 D A7+ D6 By my esophagus he was ravished D A7+ F#dim A7 Enthusiastic to a degree G F# F Eb B7 He said 'twas just enormous - my appendix vermformis Em7 A7 D But he never said he loved me verse 4 A7 D A7+ D6 He said my cerebellum was brilliant D A7+ F#dim A7 And my cerebrum far from N G G F# F Eb B7 I know he thought a lotta My medulla oblongota Em7 A7 D But he never said he loved me Verse 5 A7 D A7+ D6 He said my maxillaries were marvels D A7+ F#dim A7 And found my sternum stunning to see G F# F Eb B7 He did a double hurdle when I shook my pelvic girdle Em7 A7 D D7 But he never said he loved me
G C Cm He seemed amused when he first made a test of me G D7 E7 To further his medical art A A7+ D Dm Yet he refused when he'd fixed up the rest of me A Gm6 A To cure that ache in my heart
Verse 6 A7 D A7+ D6 I know he thought my pancreas perfect D A7+ F#dim A7 And for my spleen was keen as could be G F# F Eb B7 He said, of all his sweeties I'd the sweetest dia - betes Em7 A7 D But he never said he loved me
