Chords for Phoenix Wright Musical: The Objection Song

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Chief, what can I do against eyewitness testimony?
[F] You've got the evidence [Bb] in the court record, right?
[Gm] Find a contradiction, reason, objection.
[F] Got it.
_ [Bb] Wait, do what [Gm] now?
If your _ [Bb] client's innocent, [Cm] this _ _ [D] testimony's fiction.
_ [Eb] So check your [Bb] court record _ [Gm] for the [F] contradiction.
_ It's [G] _
time [Dm] to take control.
[Eb] The story's clearly [Bb] phony.
_ Present [Eb]
something [Bb] to poke [G] a hole [C] in [F] the _ [Bb] testimony.
Let me see.
[Eb] The witness is [Gm] clearly lying _ [Eb] to throw you [F] off your _ case.
[Gm] So find a [Bb] contradiction _ [C] to rub in [F] his snog face.
[Eb] And after you [Bb] have _ made your [C] _ careful [Dm] _
selection,
_ [C] present _ evidence as [Gm] your aid and [F] yell,
_ [Bb] _
OBJECTION!
_ _ _ So, let me get this straight, Mr.
Sawitt.
_ [G]
You [Bb] looked into the apartment and saw that the woman was dead.
_ How did you know? _
She may have just been unconscious.
_ [Dm] Well, I [Bb] mean, she was lying completely still on [Gb] the floor and _ there was blood everywhere.
Blood?
_ _ [Ab] Everywhere?
[Bb] It was obvious she was gone.
I was too afraid to move.
_ I couldn't even go inside. _
I was [Eb] completely frozen _ in [F] fear.
You didn't go inside?
[Bb] _
That's probably the fastest contradiction I ever heard.
So you've got to point it out right.
_ [Gm] What you [Bb] need to achieve [Cm] is grab the court's [D] attention
[Eb] In order to [Bb] make them believe, [Gm] you must create some [F] tension
_ [Gm] How dare the [Dm] witness tell a lie [Eb] while being on the [Bb] _ stand
[Cm] Look [Eb] them in the eye and [Gm] bang your desk [F] loudly with [Bb] your hand _ Hold it!
You say you didn't go inside.
How did you know the phone wasn't working?
I, uh, you see, the phone was on the [Ab] shelf next to the door.
I never went [F] inside.
I didn't go any further than the doorway.
[Bbm] You're getting closer, Wright.
Don't let him slither between your [Bb] fingers.
See, like I said, I found her exactly at 1pm.
Found out her phone didn't work and [F] went to the park to call.
You say you found [Fm] her dead _ at 1 o'clock.
[Bb] You've got it right.
_ Congratulations. _ _ _
_ What?
Wait, I don't understand. _
This testimony clearly condemns your client.
Give me the chair!
_ [A] _ _ _
[Gm] Now _ this judge is [Bb] rather _ old
[Cm] His _ hearing's not [D] so _ _
[Dm] _ fine
_ [Eb] He's slowly _ getting [Bb] _ bald _ _
And he [Gm] needs some kind [Eb] of a [F] soul
_ [F] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Gb] _
[Gm] So go [Dm] out on a limb, [Eb] get his mind [Bb] to linger
Just [Cm] [Eb] focus [Gm] and then point to him [C] with [F] your index [Bb] finger
Take that, Mr.
Sawett!
The autopsy report plainly states that the victim's time of death was 4pm.
Care to [F] explain this [A] to me?
I [Ab] _
don't understand.
[Eb] I'm absolutely sure [Cm] it was 1 o [C]'clock.
[D] Four?
That's [Eb] impossible.
I heard the [D] time.
Excuse [Gm] me?
How did you hear the [Gb] time?
_ [F] It must have been [E] on the _ radio, the [C] television show.
[D] That announced the TV [Eb] show during the blackout?
[F] _
Dang it!
[Bb] Stop doing that! _ _
I must have made some kind of mistake.
[G] I remembered wrong.
_ You're right.
I didn't [Dm] hear the time.
[Bbm] I [Gb] saw the time.
The [Ab] murder weapon!
The clock!
The clock?
_ Witness!
[Bb]
The murder [Gb] weapon was a statue, not a clock.
And [Ab] again you are wrong, Mr.
Wright.
The [Gb] murder weapon is indeed a clock, says [Ab] the time allowed.
I didn't bring it up because I thought it was an [Bbm] unnecessary detail.
_ [Gb] _
Mr.
[Ab] Wright, it appears your argument is moot.
Do you [Bb] have anything to add?
And at last this case [C] finally begins to unwind.
You know what to do, right?
_ Let's do it, Chief. _ _
[E] _ Witnesses clearly [Am] lying, _ [F] throw you off [G] your case.
[Am] I'll find a _ [C] contradiction, _ [D] throw that kiss in my face.
[F] And after I [C] have made [Dm] your _ careful [Em] _ selection,
I'll [Gbm] present [Abm] evidence as [Am] your main [Dm] and yell, _ [F] _
yell, [G] _ yell! _ _ _
