Tom: Em
Em
A gentleman is so 1995, so hard for a girl to find
C
A real husband’s so 1999, so hard for a girl to find
Em
‘Cause most guys just hit it and quit it, and then they wonder why most girls just split it
C
A gentleman is so 1995, so hard for a girl to find
[Verse 1]
Em Am
You’re not a lady if you’re always on your knees
C Em
Shouldn’t have to beg a gentleman so please be gentle please
Am
Oh oh oh, you’re beautiful
Em
Oh oh oh, I hope you know
Em Am
He overcompensates by buying you fancy cars
C Em
Just to cover up the fact that he stays out all night in bars
Am
Oh, if you can see
Em
That maybe he
Not meant to be
[Chorus]
Em
A gentleman is so 1995, so hard for a girl to find
C
A real husband’s so 1999, so hard for a girl to find
Em
‘Cause most dudes just hit it and quit it, and then they wonder why most girls just split it
C
A gentleman is so 1995, so hard for a girl to find
[Verse 2]
Em Am
You had his baby, so you might got him for now
C Em
He already had the milk, so why would he go buy the cow?
Am
Ah then, your chance is slim
Em
Especially when, I’m lying next to him
Em Am
I wouldn’t marry him, no, not if I were you
C Em
‘Cause if he’s been cheating on me, then he’ll probably cheat on you
Am
Ah then, your chance is slim
Em
Especially when, he’s lying next to them
[Chorus]
Em
A gentleman is so 1995, so hard for a girl to find
C
A real husband’s so 1999, so hard for a girl to find
Em
‘Cause most dudes just hit it and quit it, and then they wonder why most girls just split it
C
A gentleman is so 1995, so hard for a girl to find
[Middle 8]
Em Am C
Don’t get me wrong, I know that
Em
Most girls ain’t perfect angels
Em Am C
I’ll let you taste my rainbow
Em
You could at least be faithful
Em C
A gentleman, with a 9 to 5
A real husband, so 1999
Em C
A gentleman, with a 9 to 5
A real husband, so 1999
[Chorus]
Em
A gentleman is so 1995, so hard for a girl to find

A real husband’s so 1999, so hard for a girl to find
Em
‘Cause most dudes just hit it and quit it, and then they wonder why most girls just split it
C
A gentleman is so 1995, so hard for a girl to find
[Verse 3]
I need a Ryan Gosling, I need a Robert Pattinson
Somebody I can take to mama, I need to find my Obama
I need a Jonas brother and how ’bout a Denzel Washington?
I need a Kellen Lutz and a Channing Tatum
Throw one my way, I’ll date ‘em
I need a Drake, I need a Ludacris
I need a Weezy, I don’t care who he is
Heard ‘em say, I need a Kanye
He ain’t a gentleman, but I’ll have ‘em anyway
George Clooney, Lamar Odom
Larry King, I like ‘em older
All the gentlemen from all around the world
Holla at me, let me be your girl
Em C
Gentleman, 9 to 5
Real husband, 1999
