Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  might lost  my leg in the war
What  War? The  War of love
My  girl's a  real shark
I'm  not gonna try to uh debate it,  not everybodys perfect
My  baby told me, "Darling  if you can't get  a pardon, better  get a parole"
I  told her I'd be out  by morning when the sun  is down and  with the money rolled
Ooh  we,  that  gal's  the gal for  me
She  loves me  tenderly
I  walked with my brand  new slacks and my hair  slick back  down to Donny's pier
Donny  wants me to buy  him a bottle but I blew  my wallet  on a chandelier
All  for  my  loving  gal Eleanor
who  loves the  elderly
A  bottle of scotch A  dimesack  and a diamond  watch
Wouldn't  you  like that
A  bottle of gin  A typewriter  and a violin
Wouldn't  you  like that
 (piano part)
Whoa!  James Felice on  the piano.  Real talent. Alright Jimmy that's enough  let's wrap it up.
Ooh  we, that gal's the  gal  for me
She  loves me  tenderly
I  left my blue-eyed lady  and went with Tony  Mercedes to  the gambling room
I  lost my diamond watch  but in the parking  lot I took back  again
Oh  man you've got  to  understand
She  loves me  tenderly
A  bottle of scotch A  dimesack  and a diamond  watch
Wouldn't  you  like that
A  bottle of gin  (what)A  typewriter  and  a violin
Wouldn't  you  like that
A  sunny day, a  shotgun  and  a Chevrolet
Wouldn't  you  like that
A  painted scene  of horses on  the city green
Wouldn't  you  like that
A  microwave, a  pillbox  and  a jack of spades
Wouldn't  you  like that
