   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

  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
