   The shoe-shine was cool
A6      Em                 
   He'd sussed out the scene
A6             Em
   Scratch was nobody's fool
A6      Em                  A6
   He'd always come clean

If this was a frame-up
F#m7                  B7
Who built the frame?
    F#m7                  B7
Was this the big pay-off
        F#m7             B7
Or some crapulous game
D      A         Em
 I know you think I'm going thru' it
D        A          Em
 But babe don't weep   I didn't do it
D         A       Em                    Fmaj7/C
 The light was dim, I never knew it's a sin

To drink ....cold tea

  That pig he was rough
A6           Em
  Trailed us right round the block
A6     Em
  Enid stashed all her stuff
A6           Em                 A6
  Behind the grandfather clock
   F#m7                    B7
If this was the show-down
F#m7                 B7
Who wrote the show?
    F#m7               B7   
Was he the big con-man
          F#m7          B7
Or some cadaverous crow
D      A         Em
 I know you think I'm going thru' it
