There's nothing like summer in the city
F#m D7
Someone under stress meets someone looking pretty
Faug
There's trouble in the air, you can smell it
And Alexander's by himself. I'll let him tell it
(HAMILTON)
A
I hadn't slept in a week
I was weak, I was awake
Aaug
You never seen a bastard orphan
More in need of a break
F#m/A
Longing for Angelica
Missing my wife
A7
That's when Miss Maria Reynolds walked into my life, she said:
(MARIA)
A
I know you are a man of honor
Aaug
I'm so sorry to bother you at home
F#m/A A7
But I don't know where to go, and I came here all alone?
(HAMILTON)
She said:
(MARIA)
A
My husband's doin' me wrong
Aaug
Beatin' me, cheatin' me, mistreatin' me...
F#m/A
Suddenly he's up and gone
A7
I don't have the means to go on
(HAMILTON)
F#m D7
So I offered her a loan, I offered to walk her home, she said
(MARIA)
You're too kind, sir
(HAMILTON)
F#m
I gave her thirty bucks that I had socked away
D7
She lived a block away, she said:
(MARIA)
This one's mine, sir
(HAMILTON)
F#m
Then I said, 'well, I should head back home,'
D7
She turned red, she led me to her bed
Let her legs spread and said:
(MARIA)
Faug
Stay?
(HAMILTON)
Hey?
(MARIA)
Hey?
(HAMILTON)
That's when I began to pray:
A
Lord, show me how to
Say no to this
Aaug
I don't know how to
Say no to this
F#m/A
But my God, she looks so helpless
A7
And her body's saying, 'hell, yes'
(MARIA)
A
Whoa...
(HAMILTON)
Nooo, show me how to
(HAMILTON/ENSEMBLE)
Say no to this
(HAMILTON)
Aaug
I don't know how to
(HAMILTON/ENSEMBLE)
Say no to this
(HAMILTON)
F#m/A
In my mind, I'm tryin' to go
(ENSEMBLE)
Go! Go! Go!
(HAMILTON)
A7 D
Then her mouth is on mine, and I don't say?
(ENSEMBLE)
A
No! No!
Say no to this!
Aaug
No! No!
Say no to this!
F#m/A
No! No!
Say no to this!
A7
No! No!
Say no to this!
(HAMILTON)
A
I wish I could say that was the last time
Aaug
I said that last time. It became a pastime
F#m/A
A month into this endeavor I received a letter
A7
From a Mr. James Reynolds, even better, it said:
(JAMES)
A5*
Dear Sir, I hope this letter finds you in good health
And in a prosperous enough position to put wealth
In the pockets of people like me: down on their luck
You see, that was my wife who you decided to
(HAMILTON)
Fuuuu—
(JAMES)
Uh-oh! You made the wrong sucker a cuckold
So time to pay the piper for the pants you unbuckled
And hey, you can keep seein' my whore wife
If the price is right: if not I'm telling your wife
(HAMILTON)
F#m
I hid the letter and I raced to her place
D7
Screamed 'How could you?!' in her face
She said:
(MARIA)
No, sir!
(HAMILTON)
F#m
Half dressed, apologetic. A mess, she looked
D7
Pathetic, she cried:
(MARIA)
Please don't go, sir!
(HAMILTON)
F#m
So was your whole story a setup?
(MARIA)
I don't know about any letter!
(HAMILTON)
E/F#
Stop crying Goddamnit, get up!
(MARIA)

I didn't know any better
