Who you gonna run   to?
G         D/F#  Em
All your little life
         G     D/F#     Em
You're chasing all the girls.

They can't resist your smile.

Chattin' up the la-   dies

Tickling their fan-  cy
G       D/F#     Em
Pouring out your charms

To meet your own demands,

And turn it off at will

Oh, oh, they long for ...

Climbing through the win-  dow,
G       D/F#  Em
Hubby's gone away,

The mice are gonna play.

Oh, oh, you low down

Dandy, you know you're moving much too fast,
    F#                  C#7
And Dandy, you know you can't escape the past.
      A                     E7
Look around you and see the people settle down,
    A                   A/G             A/F#              A/F
And when you're old and grey you will remember what they said
     A                 A/G             A/F#                  A/F
That two girls are too many, three's a crowd and four you're dead

[Verse 5]
    D
Oh, Dandy, Dandy
D              Dsus4 D
When you gonna give up? 
D               Dsus4 D
Are you feeling old   now?
    G      D/F#    Em
You always will be free,
    G       D/F# Em
You need no sympathy,
  G        D/F#     Em
A bachelor you will stay,
    G      C      G/B D
And Dandy, you're all right.
