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,

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,

If you marry me, Bernardette, 
you'll lose the alimony, palimony, whatever it is you get,

you've got, no incentive.

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

she's got all expenses paid. 

Middle8: 

C                    D E                    D 
Maybe a famous rock star will fly you away,

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,

you've got, no incentive.

Women like you oughta be locked up,
