E minorEm A major 6A6
[3x]
E minorEm
A major 6A6 E minorEm
The shoe-shine was cool
A major 6A6 E minorEm
He'd sussed out the scene
A major 6A6 E minorEm
Scratch was nobody's fool
A major 6A6 E minorEm A major 6A6
He'd always come clean
F#m7F#m7 B7B7
If this was a frame-up
F#m7F#m7 B7B7
Who built the frame?
F#m7F#m7 B7B7
Was this the big pay-off
F#m7F#m7 B7B7
Or some crapulous game
D MajorD A augmentedA E minorEm
I know you think I'm going thru' it
D MajorD A augmentedA E minorEm
But babe don't weep I didn't do it
D MajorD A augmentedA E minorEm Fmaj7/C
The light was dim, I never knew it's a sin
DMaj9Dmaj9 E minorEm A major 6A6
To drink ....cold tea
E minorEm
A major 6A6 E minorEm
That pig he was rough
A major 6A6 E minorEm
Trailed us right round the block
A major 6A6 E minorEm
Enid stashed all her stuff
A major 6A6 E minorEm A major 6A6
Behind the grandfather clock
F#m7F#m7 B7B7
If this was the show-down
F#m7F#m7 B7B7
Who wrote the show?
F#m7F#m7 B7B7
Was he the big con-man
F#m7F#m7 B7B7
Or some cadaverous crow
D MajorD A augmentedA E minorEm
I know you think I'm going thru' it
D MajorD A augmentedA E minorEm
But babe don't weep I didn't do it
D MajorD A augmentedA E minorEm Fmaj7/C
The light was dim, I never knew it's a sin

You know the light was so dim
