verse 1 

               G                                                                          
                                                              I used to be a spy 
               Em       D     G 
I used to be a real enigmatic guy 
                   G 
I travelled on the trains 
                    Em            D         G 
I travelled with my collar turned up in the rain 
                G 
I had a little gun 
                      Em             D      G 
And I followed on the heels of those on the run 
                     G 
And they never got away 
                   Em            D         G 
There always was a price and the price got paid 

Chorus 

               C  D 
I used to be a spy 
               Em       D     G 
I used to be a real enigmatic guy 

verse 2 

             G 
Before I met you 
                   Em            D      G 
And before all the shit that you put me through 
                     G 
I thought love would prevail 
                       Em            D      G 
But you had me running round chasing my own tail 
                G 
I couldn't even spy 
             Em             D            G 
I always was conspicuous no matter how I tried 
                     G 
I was pissing in the wind 
               Em          D                  G 
So desperate I resorted to going through your bin 

Chorus 

               C D 
I used to be a spy 
            Em        D         G 
Spying with my little enigmatic eye

verse 3 

                      G 
But that was way back then 
                Em            D                     G 
Back when I was fatter and my hair weren't quite as thin 
                       G 
But you made me look a fool 
                    Em             D      G 
So I took my little gun and put an end to you 
                       G 
Now they hunt me every day 
                    Em        D           G 
They hunt me like a dog but I always get away 
                            G 
Cause I'm a slippery little worm 
              Em           D        G 
Living off my wits now the worm has turned

I used to be a spy 
               C  D 
I used to be a spy 
               Em       D     G 
I used to be a real enigmatic guy
