[G] [Cm] The cavity's a ginger [F] cat, he's very tall [B] and thin
[Eb] You would know him if you saw him, [F] for his eyes are [C] sunken
[G]
[C] His brow is deeply lined with thought, his head is highly [F] doomed
His feet is dusty from neglect, his whiskers are [Eb] uncombed
He sways his head [Gb] from side to side [F] with [Gbm] movements like [Ab] a snake
[G] And when you think he's half asleep, he's always wide awake!
[Cm] McCavity, [Eb]
McCavity, [F] there's no one [D] like McCavity
[Cm] For he's [Eb] outstreamed in feline shape, [F] a monster [Gb] of depravity
[Cm] You may meet him in a by-street, [F] you may see him [Gb] in a square
[Eb] But when a crime's discovered, then McCavity's not there
He's [Gb] [A] outwardly [C] [A] [Gb] respectable
[Eb] [Cm] I know he cheats at cards
And [Eb] his [Gb] footprints [A] [C] are [A] not [Gbm] found [Eb] in [Cm] any files [Gbm] of Scotland Yards
And when the [Cm] lot is looted [Ebm] or the jewel [Gb] case is [Cm] rifled
Or [C] when the milk is missing or [F] another pig's been [Cm] stifled
Or the greenhouse glass is broken and the trellis [Ab] parts repaired
[Cm] There's the wonder of the thing, McCavity's not there
[G]
[Cm] McCavity, [A] McCavity, [F] there's no [D] one like McCavity
[Cm] There never was a cat of such [F] deceitfulness and [D] suavity
[Cm] He always [C] has an alibi [F] and one or [Ab] two despair
Whatever [Am] time the deed took place, McCavity's [Cm] not there
[C] And they say that all the cats whose wicked deeds are [A] widely known
I might mention mongo-cherry, I [Cm] might mention griddle-bone
Are nothing more than [Eb] agents for [A] the cat who all the [Ab] time
Just controls [G] the operations, the Napoleon of Crime
[C] McCavity, [Eb] McCavity, [F]
there's no one [D] like [Cm] [C] McCavity
He's a [Ebm] fiend in feline shape, [F] a monster of [Gb] depravity
[C] You may meet [Cm] him [C] in a vice [A] suit, you may see him [Ab] in the square
[G] But when a crime's discovered then, McCavity
