  C                F       G     C      G  
Miss otis regrets she's unable to lunch today  
F  
Madam 
C                            G  
Miss otis regrets she's unable to lunch today 
     C  
She is sorry to be delayed 
       F                        C  
But last evening down in lover's lane she strayed  
F  
Madam 
C                F       G     C      G  
Miss otis regrets she's unable to lunch today 
     C  
When she woke up and found  
       F                        C  
That her dream of love was gone 
F 
Madam  
  C                F       G     C      G  
She ran to the man who had led her so far astray  
     C  
And from under her velvet gown  
       F                        C  
She drew a gun and shot her lover man down 
F 
Madam  
C                            G  
Miss otis regrets she's unable to lunch today  
     C  
When the mob came and got her  
       F                        C  
And dragged her from the jail 
F 
Madam  
C                            G  
They strung her upon the old willow across the way 
     C  
And the moment before she died  
       F                        C  
She lifted up her lovely head and cried 
F 
Madam 
  C                F       G     C      G  
Miss otis regrets she's unable to lunch today  
C                         F       G  
Miss otis regrets she's unable to lunch  
Am  
Today
