Please
[G] [D]
allow me to [C] introduce myself.
[D] [Am] [D] I am a [G] man of wealth [D] and fame.
I've been [G] around [C] many long [G] years,
in many soulful [D] ways.
[G]
[D] I was around [G] when [C] Jesus [G] Christ had
his moments [D] of doubt and pain.
[G]
[D] I made sure that [C] the [G] pilot
washed his hands,
[D]
[C] and sealed [D] his fate.
[A] [G] Pleased [A] to meet you,
[Em] I hope you guessed [D] my name.
[G] Oh, what's puzzling you must be
[A] the nature [Bm] of my [D] game.
I spoke around [C] St.
[G] Petersburg
when [D] I [G] thought it was time for a [D] change.
[G] [Dm] I killed the [G] sultan and [C] his minister,
[G] and then I stayed up.
She [D] screamed in vain.
I rode a tank, I held [G] a general's rank,
while the blitzkrieg raged in the [D] fire of its fame.
[A]
[E] Pleased to meet you,
I hope you [G] guessed my name.

watched with glee as your [C] kings and queens
[G] fought for ten decades,
for [D] the gods they [Gm] made.
[D] I shouted out who [C] killed the Kennedys,
[E] [G] when after all you know it was [D] you and me.
[G] Pleased to meet you,
I hope you [D] guessed my name.
Oh, [G] [D]
[Em] [A] what's puzzling you [Em] must be the nature [D] of my game.
[F] [D] Just as every cop [G] is [C] a criminal,
[G] and all of the sinners [C] [D] saints.
[G] [D] If you need me, please [G] have [C] some [G] courtesy.
Use some sympathy.
[C] [D] Have some taste.
Use all of your well-earned [G] politics,
[C]
[G] or I'll lay you solar waves.
[D]
[A] [G] Pleased to meet you,
I hope you guessed my name.
[D]
What's puzzling you,
[A] oh, that must be the nature [D] of my game.

[D] must be my nature.
