The Perfect Crime #2 ukulele

The Perfect Crime #2

• Em

INTRO: Em 

VERSE 1: 

Sing muse of the passion of the pistol 
Sing muse of the warning by the whistle 
A night so dark in the waning 
A dawn obscured by a slate sky raining 

VERSE 2: 

Five and twenty burglars by the reservoir 
A teenage lookout on the signal tower 
The mogul's daughter in hogties 
The mogul fingers the wrong guy 


               
           C                       D 
It was a perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect    
C                     G                 Em 
A perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect crime 
           C                       D 
It was a perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect    
C                     G                 Em 
A perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect crime 

It was the perfect crime 



VERSE 3: 

The bagman's quaking in the fingers 
The hand off lends a little lingers 
A well dressed man in the cross hairs 
A shot rings out from somewhere upstairs 

 
           C                       D 
It was a perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect    
C                     G                 Em 
A perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect crime 
           C                       D 
It was a perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect    
C                     G                 Em 
A perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect crime 



It was the perfect crime 

BRIDGE:
 

C                         B 
   It was like a ticker-tape parade 
            C                               B 
   When the plastique on the safe was blown away 
C                        B 
   We all gazed from eye to eye 
         C                       Em  
   As we mouthed our silent good-byes 

VERSE 4: 

The valley sleeping with the bastard 
It stinks of slumber and disaster 
Two words I spoke on the tap-wire 
The agent's ploy was a surefire backfire 



           C                       D 
It was a perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect    
C                     G                 Em 
A perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect crime 
           C                       D 
It was a perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect    
C                     G                 Em 
A perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect crime 

     C                  D                 
a perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect            
     C                  D                 
a perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect 
     C                  D                 
a perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect 
     C                  D                 
a perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect 
     C                  D                 
a perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect 
     C                  D                 
a perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect 
     C                  D                 
a perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect 
     C                  D                Em 
A perfect a perfect a perfect a perfect crime
