[Fm]
[E] Please allow me [D] to introduce myself.
[A] I'm a man of [E] wealth and taste.
I've been around [D] for a long, long year.
[A] Stole many a [E] man's soul and faith.
I was round [D] when Jesus Christ [C#] had his moment [Gm] of [E] doubt and pain.
Made damn [D] sure the Pilate [A] washed his hands [D#] and [E] sealed his faith.
[B] Pleased to meet you, [E] hope you guessed my name.
[B] What puzzled you is the nature of [E] my game.
Stuck around [D] St.
Petersburg [A] when I saw it was a time [E] for change.
Killed the saw [D] and its ministers in a station [E] street debate.
I rode a tank, [D] held a generous crank, [C#] when the blitzkrieg rained [E] and the fight is fake.
[B] Pleased to meet you, hope you guessed [E] my name.
Oh yeah!
What [B] puzzled you is the nature [Dm] of [E] my game.
Oh yeah!
I was the clean, [D] wired king, dead queen, [A] fought for ten decades [E] for the God-famed name.
I shouted out who [D] killed those Kennedy's, when [A] after all [E] it was you and me.
Let me please [D] introduce myself, [C#] I'm a man of wealth [E] and taste.
I lay traps [D] for troubadours [A] who get killed before they reach [E] Bombay.
[B] Pleased to meet you, hope you [E] guessed my name.
Oh yeah!
[B] What puzzled you is the [E] nature of my game.
Oh yeah!
Get down to it!

Mmm, man, just as every cop [D] is a criminal, [A] and all [D] the [E] sinner's saints has had this tale
[D] just for me, Lucifer, [A] cause I'm in need of [D] some [E] restraint.
So if you meet me, have [D] some courtesy, have [C#] some [D] sympathy, [E] have some taste.
Use all your well [D]-earned qualities [C#] or I'll [D] lay your [E] soul to waste.
Yeah!
