Lyrics

(G)Be ing Mis sus Banks

should (G)be an eas y role,

and (G)yet it’s one which (G)I don’t seem too (Esus)good at on the (E7)whole.

I (Am7)have a com fy (D)home, I (Am7)have a sim ple (D)life,

I (A7)have a name which tells the world I’m (C)some one else ’s (D7)wife.

(G)Be ing Mis sus Banks,

(G)what does that en tail?

(G)Fac ing tests of (G)char ac ter I (Esus)al ways seem to (E7)fail.

And (Am7)as for his “Best (D7)Peo ple,” well I’d (Bm7)like to say, “no (E7)thanks.” They’re (Am)not ex act ly (A7)my i dea of (D7)be ing

Mis sus (G)Banks.

When (Asus)ev er you spoke of Miss (A)An drew, you (Asus)show ered the wom an with (A)praise.

But (Asus)now that I’ve met dear Miss (A)An drew, there are (D7sus)one or two (D7)things I’d re (G)phrase.

To (Cm)think you were raised by that (G)mon ster, and (Cm)car ried that bur den through (Em)life.

If (Asus)on ly you had (A)seen that you could (Cm6)share it with your (D7)wife.

(G)Be ing Mis sus Banks,

it’s (G)eas y to for get

the (G)way I felt that (G)sum mer’s day, the (Em)day that we first (D7)met.

(G)Be ing Mis sus Banks,

(G)be ing kissed by (Cmaj9)you,

a (G)man of dreams who (G)made me feel that (Esus)wish es could come (E7)true.

And (Am)now, al though you’re (D7)lost,

it’s (Bm7)time that we closed (E7)ranks.

I’ll (A9sus)fight for the man who needs (A7)free ing,

the (A9sus)real you who no one is (A7)see ing,

and (F#)you’ll find a (B7)way of just (Em7)be ing,

(Am7)be ing

(D7)Mis ter

(G)Banks.
