So this is where he came to hide
MI SI MI
When he ran from you
MI
In a private detective overcoat
FA#m
And dirty dead men's shoes
MI SI MI
The pretty things of Knightsbridge
MI SI MI
Lying for of Minister of State
MI
Are a far cry from the nod and wink
FA#m
Here at Traitors' Gate
SOL#m DO#m
'Cause the high heel he used to be has been ground down
FA#sus4
And he listens for the footsteps
MI/SI SI7
That would follow him around
MI FA#m SOL#m MI
To murder - my love - is a crime
FA#m SOL#m LA FA#/SIb SIsus4 SOL#/SI# DO#m LA MI
But will you still love - a man out of time
MI SI MI
There's a tupenny ha'ppenny millionaire
MI SI MI
Looking for a fourpenny one
MI
With a tight grip on the short hairs
FA#m
Of the public imagination
MI SI MI
But for his private wife and kids somehow
MI SI MI
Real life becomes a rumour
MI
Days of Dutch courage, just three French letters
FA#m
And a German sense of humor
SOL#m DO#m
He's got a mind like a sewer and a heart like a fridge
FA#sus4
He stands to be insulted
MI/SI SI7
And he pays for the privilege
MI FA#m SOL#m MI
To murder - my love - is a crime
FA#m SOL#m LA FA#/SIb SIsus4 SOL#/SI# DO#m LA MI
But will you still love - a man out of time
MI SI MI
The biggest wheels of industry
MI SI MI
Retire sharp and short
MI
And after the dinner overtures
FA#m
Are nothing but an afterthought
MI SI MI
Somebody's creeping in the kitchen
MI SI MI
There's a reputation to be made
MI
Whose nerves are always on the knife's edge
FA#m
And who's up late polishing the blade
SOL#m DO#m
Love is always scarpering or cowering or fawning
FA#sus4
You drink yourself insensitive
MI/SI SI7
And hate yourself in the morning
MI FA#m SOL#m MI
To murder - my love - is a crime
FA#m SOL#m LA FA#/SIb SIsus4 SOL#/SI# DO#m LA MI
But will you still love - a man out of time
