[Dm]
Always for another guy
Verse 1
[Dm] [A7]
Italians love to sip a cup of cappuccino

That's how he's paid to serenade your lady fair

With his little mandolino

Signorinas he can win
[Dm]
Always for another guy
Verse 2
[D] [A7]
He seems like such a happy man, the man who plays the mandolino

He sings a song of sweet romance for all the lovers as they dance

But all he's holding in his arms is just a little mandolino
[Dm] [A] [Dm]
He has no woman of his own, so every night he walks alone

With his little mandolino

And a twinkle in his eye

Always for another guy

And so until that lucky day, he looks for her along the way

The man with the mandolino
