Divorced Beheaded Died

Am           Ab
Divorced, beheaded and died.
Am                     Em
Divorced, beheaded, survived.

I'm Henry the 8th, I had six sorry wives.
G          Am       B         C    Am
Some might say I ruined their lives.

[Chorus]
Am
Catherine of Aragon was one
Am
She failed to give me a son.
Am
I had to ask her for a divorce
Am   G              F         Em
That broke her poor heart, of course

[Verse]
Am
Young Anne Boleyn she was two,
Am
had a daughter the best she could do
Am
I said she flirted with some other man
Am      G       F         Em
And off for the chop went dear Anne.

Lovely Jane Seymour was three,
Am                        Ab
The love of a lifetime for me.
    Am   Am   Am   B      B      B
She gave me a son, little Prince Ed,
     Am   Am  Am    Ab       Ab      Ab
Then poor old Jane, went and dropped dead.
Am           Ab
Divorced, beheaded and died.

Some might say I ruined their lives.
Am
Anne of Cleves came as four,
Am
I fell for the portrait I saw.
Am
Then laid on her face and cried, 'She's a horse!
Am     G       F        Em
I must have another divorce.'

[Chorus]
Am
Catherine Howard was five,
Am
A child of nineteen, so alive.
Am
She flirted with others, no way to behave.
Am      G          F           Em
The axe sent young Cath to her grave.

Catherine Parr she was last.
Am                            Ab
By then all my best days were past.
Am                             B
I lay on my deathbed aged just fifty-five,
Am                       Ab
Lucky Catherine the last stayed alive.
(I mean, how unfair!)
