Start Jamming...
[Gm] [G#] .
[D] .
[E] [D] .
[A] I'm a [E] man of wealth and taste.
I've been around for [D] a long, long year.
[A] Stole many a [E] man's soul today.
.
I was round for a long, long year.
I was round [D] when Jesus Christ [A] had his moment.
[A#m] I [E] was named.
Made damn [D] sure the pilot washed [A] his hands [N] and sealed [E] his face.
[B] Pleased to meet you.
[E] Hope you guessed my name.
.
[B] But what was left of you is the nature of [E] my game.
.
Stuck around [D] St.
Petersburg when [A] I saw it was a time [E] for change.
Killed the czar [D] and his ministers and [A] the [C#] stages.
[E] Speak today.
I rode a tank, [D] held a tender as rank, [C#] when the fifth street rang [Dm] [E] and the finest sang.
.
[B] Pleased to meet you.
Hope you guessed [E] my name.
But [B] what was left of you is the nature of [E] my game.
.
I was reclaimed [D] by kings and queens, [A] bought with tender case [Gm] [E] for the God-saved name.
I shouted out, who [D] killed those Kennedy's?.
[A] When after all, [D#] [E] it was you and me.
Let me please [D] introduce myself.
[G] I'm a man of wealth [E] and taste.
.
I lay traps [D] for troubadours [A] who get killed before they [E] reach my name.
.
[B] Pleased to meet you.
Hope you guessed [E] my name.
Oh, yes.
[B] But what was left of you is the [E] nature of my game.
Oh, yes.
Look at that.

But what [B] was left of you is the nature of [E] my game.
Oh, yes.
.
Just as every cop [D] is a criminal, [A] so [E] is every thief.
.
As headless thieves [D] just call me lucifer, [C#] cause [A] I'm in need of some [E] restraint.
.
So if you meet me, have some [D] courtesy, [A] have some sympathy, [E] and some grace.
You know you well have [D] learned your quality [C#m] before I lay your [E] souls to waste.
