    A 

Intro: A, D, A, E, F#, A (W/ riff) 

Verse 1: 

A (W/ riff) 
I don't wanna leave, Bernardette, 
but I don't wanna live with the jet set. 
I don't wanna leave, with you paying all my debts, 
with that alimony, palimony, whatever it is you get, 

Chorus: 

E    D                    F#   E  D 
Ooh, Bernardette, you are so expensive, 
E                         D                    
you've never done a day's work in your life, 
            F#   E  D 
you've got, no incentive. 
       E                     D 
You've made a career, out of punting off all the 
F#               E     D 
men, that you've slept with 
E    D                    F#   E  D 
Ooh, Bernardette, you are so expensive, 

Verse 2: 

A (W/ riff) 
I can't get a job, Bernardette, 
so all that I can offer are a lot of bad debts. 
If you marry me, Bernardette, 
you'll lose the alimony, palimony, whatever it is you get, 

Chorus: 

E    D                    F#   E  D 
Ooh, Bernardette, you are so expensive, 
E                         D                    
you've never done a day's work in your life, 
            F#   E  D 
you've got, no incentive. 
       E                     D 
You've made a career, out of punting off all the 
F#               E     D 
men, that you've slept with 
E    D                    F#   E  D 
Ooh, Bernardette, you are so expensive, 
A (W/ riff) 
Ooh, Bernardette, Bernardette, 
Ooh, Bernardette, Bernardette, 

Sax Solo: 

C                                D 
Bernardette's got a house in the country, 
E                         D 
she's really got it made. 
C                              D 
Her lies made her filthy rich, 
E                              D 
she's got all expenses paid. 

Middle8: 

C                    D E                    D 
Maybe a famous rock star will fly you away, 
C                                         D E                         D 
then you'll eat him all up, and spit him out, with a dash of Perrier. 
C                                             D  E                                   D 
And when you've had enough, you'll throw him away, and take him for all you can get, 
C                         D E          
Yeah, you like it, don't you, Bernardette, 

Verse 3: 

A (W/ riff) 
I don't wanna leave, Bernardette, 
but I wanna keep a little bit of self respect. 
I don't wanna leave with you paying all my debts, 
with that alimony, palimony, whatever it is you get, 

Chorus: 

E    D                    F#   E  D 
Ooh, Bernardette, you are so expensive, 
E                         D                    
you've never done a day's work in your life, 
            F#   E  D 
you've got, no incentive. 
E                     D 
Women like you oughta be locked up, 
           F#       E   D 
for giving others a bad name 
E    D                    F#   E  D 
Ooh, Bernardette, you are so expensive, 
A (W/ riff) 
Ooh, Bernardette, Bernardette, 
Ooh, Bernardette, 
I think you're sad.
