[INTRODUCTION]
       D                          Gm6
Once I loved such a shattering physician
          Gm           A7            D
Quite the best looking doctor in the state
          D                    Gm6
He looked after my physical condition
        Gm      A7         D
And his bedside manner was great
         Bm                         Gm6
When I'd gaze up and see him there above me
        Gm          A7            D
Looking less like a doctor than a Turk
      Bm                          Gm6
I was tempted to whisper, "Do you love me
          Gm     A7        D
Or do you merely love your work?"
 
[Verse 1]
   A7      D         A7+          D6
He said my bronchial tubes were entrancing
      D       A7+             F#dim          A7
My epiglottis filled him with glee 
          G        F#              F     Eb      B7
He simply loved my larynx and went wild about my pharynx
       Em7           A7    D
But he never said he loved me 
 
[Verse 2]
   A7      D  A7+        D6
He said my epidermis was darling
             D        A7+           F#dim   A7
And found my blood as blue as could be 
                G      F#             F          Eb    B7
He went through wild ecstatics when I showed him my lymphatics
       Em7           A7    D         D7
But he never said he loved me  
 
[Chorus 1]
               G      G+           C        Cm
And though, no doubt,       it was not very smart of me
  G         D7             E7
I kept on a-wracking of my soul
          A    A7+            D           Dm
To figure out          why he loved every part of me
    A       Gm6     A
And yet not me as a whole 
 
[Verse 3]
   A7  D    A7+        D6
By my esophagus he was ravished
       D     A7+    F#dim    A7
Enthusiastic to a degree 
              G     F#            F       Eb  B7
He said 'twas just enormous - my appendix vermformis
       Em7           A7    D
But he never said he loved me 
 
[Verse 4]
   A7      D   A7+        D6
He said my cerebellum was brilliant
       D        A7+        F#dim    A7
And my cerebrum far from N G 
          G         F#       F       Eb   B7
I know he thought a lotta My medulla oblongota
       Em7           A7    D
But he never said he loved me 
 
[Verse 5]
   A7      D   A7+          D6
He said my maxillaries were marvels
             D       A7+         F#dim    A7
And found my sternum stunning to see 
         G      F#            F        Eb     B7
He did a double hurdle when I shook my pelvic girdle           
       Em7           A7    D     D7
But he never said he loved me 
 
[Chorus 2]
           G      G+            C            Cm
He seemed amused        when he first made a test of me
   G           D7      E7
To further his medical art
         A      A7+             D            Dm
Yet he refused        when he'd fixed up the rest of me
   A         Gm6        A
To cure that ache in my heart
 
[Verse 6]
  A7      D          A7+      D6
I know he thought my pancreas perfect
           D          A7+           F#dim     A7
And for my spleen was keen as could be 
            G       F#               F        Eb    B7
He said, of all his sweeties I'd the sweetest dia - betes
       Em7           A7    D
But he never said he loved me
