Verse:
  B minorBm                Bm7Bm7
She came, as in the book, Mickey Spillane
                G/BG/B
That Saturday night dark masquerade
                    Gmaj7Gmaj7    F#F#
Had filled his friend with lead, the same, sweetheart
  B minorBm                  Bm7Bm7
But then, as nothing happens quite the same
            G/BG/B
Investigation is the game
              Gmaj7Gmaj7 F#F#   B minorBm
He had to check her story right away-he dead
   Bm7Bm7
Sam Space his buddy Archer first to go he got it
    Bm7Bm7
She spelt it out, how could they know the 'Fatman' got it
Bm7Bm7                           -he dead
Her sister didn't really live at all-confusion-he dead
                 G+G         A augmentedA    Bm7Bm7    G+G F#F#
His chase led to the Fatman, to face the friends of Mr. Cairo
   B minorBm                Bm7Bm7
That night, the double crosser got it right
             G/BG/B
Pretending he was really dim
              Gmaj7Gmaj7     F#F#
He slipped to Sam a double gin (Mickey Finn)
  B minorBm                 Bm7Bm7
He woke, the boys had gone, but not his gun
                G/BG/B
They'd left a note to lead him on
                Gmaj7Gmaj7 F#F#   B minorBm
The chase to find the Maltese Falcon-you bet-
B minorBm
Early thirties gangster movies

Set to spellbind population
B minorBm
From Chicago to Hong Kong

Via Istanbul the Talking Tong
B minorBm
Dirty rats thru' prohibition

Money flowed thru gangsterism
B minorBm
Acting out his fantasy

In Hollywoods vicinity
B minorBm
The best part for the best rendition

Al Capone he sent to prison
B minorBm
Citizen Kane came fast and quickly

Conquerin ol' New York City
B minorBm
Poking fun at superstition

Media became television
B minorBm
Give me Cagney anyday

Or Jimmy Stewart for President
B minorBm
Or Edward 'G' and all those guys
   G+G       A augmentedA
Who always shoot between the eyes
G+G       A augmentedA
Between the eyes
G+G       A augmentedA
Between the eyes

Verse:
B minorBm         F#m7F#m7
Father love do you work, do you work for Mother
B minorBm            F#m7F#m7
Chances could call, and accept that, be no other
B minorBm            F#m7F#m7
Science as it might, disappear correspond with colour
B minorBm            F#m7F#m7
Chance is the fruit, will outlive, what is now the brother
B minorBm            F#m7F#m7
Call for total wealth to distribute like a picture
B minorBm            F#m7F#m7
In black and white, give it joy, give it, let it hit you
B minorBm            F#m7F#m7
Spoil our existence by extreme gift to population
B minorBm            F#m7F#m7
Father love do you work, do you work for Mother?
B minorBm            F#m7F#m7
Tell me straight be the Godfather be no other
B minorBm            F#m7F#m7
Media Kings give us now give us total movie
B minorBm           G+G     A augmentedA     B minorBm  Bm7Bm7  G/BG/B
Now being here, being now, being here believing

Verse:
B minorBm
One on one to talk to you
    Bm/A(x04432)
Like film stars they get close to you
      G+G
You've mirrored his appeal
   F#F#             B minorBm
He wants you so, he wants to be beside you
   Bm/ABm/A   G+G    F#F#       B minorBm
Then you pass by giving him the other side of you
      Bm/ABm/A
Like the mystics do
     G+G       F#F#         B minorBm - Bm/ABm/A - G+G - F#F#
So that every time he moves, he moves for you
B minorBm
Soul and light can always see
   BM/A          G+G
The metting of true love and she
           F#F#
This silent night and I,
          B minorBm
I guess a lonely mind might see
   Bm/ABm/A        G+G
I've seen love on the screen
       F#F#         BB F#/B(x24322)
I've seen a screen goddesss and me-oh
 BB  F#F#       BB
How often this, how often, this the power of you
  BB F#/A#(xx8676)A°
And so, I must confess
   C#m7C#m7
Whatever I see
   Em7/B(x22033)      BB F#F#
I'm meant to be there with you
   BB  F#F#  BB  F#F#      BB  F#F#  BB  F#F#
With you with you       With you, with you

Verse:
B minorBm                 G+G
Silent golden movies, talkies, technicolour, long ago
   A augmentedA              D MajorD       F#F#
My younger ways stand clearer, clearer than my footprints

I really talked, yes I did, to Gods early dawning light
      BB           F#F#
And I was privileged to be as I am to this day
      BB        F#7F#7
To be with you. To be with you

To be with you. To be with you

To be with you
