      C#m                A        F#m       
     {                                                    }  x2 
 
  C#m 
     Here comes the maven he's coming around 
                                                      A 
     He's such a connoisseur he's such an autograph hound, yeah 
     F#m 
     He's got 60 yes men and they tend to agree 
 
  C#m 
     There's a lawman built without any eyes 
                                            A 
     He's got my number, but he's got your size, yeah 
         F#m 
     And if you measure up a short trip could be wise 
 
    E                              Gm 
     Just turn the light off when you go 
    E                        Gm 
     Just tell the jury all you know 
      Am           Bm         C        Cm 
     He'll send a sign to you over the sea 
 
  C#m 
     There goes the maven sowing his seed 
                                              A 
     One for the rock one for the hand that feeds, yeah 
  F#m 
     He reaps the harvest with a sleight of hand 
 
  C#m 
     Just say the magic word he's at your side 
                                                       A 
     Beware his tender touch his plans are chilly and wide, yeah 
      F#m 
     Sleeps through the winter in a wide quiet land 
 
    E                              Gm 
     Just turn the light off when you go 
    E                        Gm 
     Just tell the jury all you know 
      Am           Bm         C        Cm 
     He'll send a sign to you over the sea 
 
      C#m                A        F#m       
     {                                                    }  x2 
 
  C#m 
     Here is the maven draining the cup 
                                        A 
     He takes your arm then he eats you up, yeah 
  F#m 
     There is a surfeit of everything you crave 
 
  C#m 
     Here is the maven signing the cheque 
                                              A 
     He bought us dinner so what the fucking heck, yeah 
  F#m 
     There is a surplus of everything you save 
 
    E                              Gm 
     Just turn the light off when you go 
    E                        Gm 
     Just tell the jury all you know 
      Am           Bm         C        Cm 
     He'll send a sign to you over the sea 
 
      C#m                A        F#m       
                                                           Repeat and fade
