Verse 1:

 Em                     D
Please allow me to introduce myself
      A                 Em
I'm a man of wealth and taste
Em                     D
I've been around for a long, long year
A                           Em
Stole many a man's soul to waste

Em                    D
And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
        A                   Em
Had his moment of doubt and pain
                    D
Made damn sure that Pilate
           A                    Em
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Chorus:

B
 Pleased to meet you
         B7       Em
Hope you guess my name
           B
But what's puzzling you
          B7        Em
Is the nature of my game

Verse 2:

Em                 D
I stuck around St. Petersburg
       A                       Em
When I saw it was a time for a change
 Em                     D
Killed the Czar and his ministers
    A                 Em
Anastasia screamed in vain

  Em
I rode a tank
       D
Held a general's rank
         A
When the Blitzkrieg raged
        Em
And the bodies stank

Chorus:

B
 Pleased to meet you
                  Em
Hope you guess my name
           B
But what's puzzling you
        B7          Em
Is the nature of my game

Verse 3:

  Em
I watched with glee
           D
While your kings and queens
           A
Fought for decades
        Em
For the Gods they made

  Em
I shouted out
                D
"Who killed the Kennedys "
     A
When after all
       Em
It was you and me

Em                 D
Let me please introduce myself
      A                 Em
I'm a man of wealth and taste
                     D
And I laid traps for troubadours
        A                             Em
Who get killed before they reached Bombay

Chorus:

B
 Pleased to meet you
                  Em
Hope you guess my name
            B
But what's confusing you
                    Em
Is the nature of my game

Verse 4:

        Em             D
Just as every cop is a criminal
    A               Em
And all the sinners saints
   Em
As heads is tails
             D
Just call me Lucifer
              A              Em
'Cause I'm in need of some restraint

Em
So if you meet me
          D
Have some courtesy
          A                  Em
Have some sympathy, and some taste
                             D
Use all your well-learned politesse
        A                       Em
Or I'll lay your fucking soul to waste, um yeah

Chorus:

B
 Pleased to meet you
                  Em
Hope you guess my name
           B
But what's puzzling you
                    Em
Is the nature of my game
