[Verse 1]
[Bb]I first
got the [F]case [C]of the [Cm]man with no face
one evening in August [F]last [Cm]year
a telephone call told me nothing at all
[Fsus4]and I made an appoint[B]ment with
[F]fear[Em][Gaug][Em]
[Gaug]
[Em]She was dressed to the nines[Gaug]
[Em]on Parisian lines
Her features were [E]winsome an[Am]d cool
She [B]stuck half a grand in my
[Em]hot little hand
Which [C]is more than I [Cm]get, as it [B]were
I [Em]tried to look wise
[B]as she pli[Em]ed me [B]with lies
[Em]About hus[E]bands and
random [Em]young [Am]men[G]
[C]And whe[B]n she was through,
I said, [Em]bollocks to you,
you're [B]talking to lavatory [Em]men
[B]You're not[Em] some poor tar[B]t
[Em]who had a bad [B]start,
[Em]you're in with the heavy brigade
[Am]
[C]You're [B]up to some skank,
and [Em]to be very frank,
[C]I'm useless with shooters and [B]blades
To [Em]tell you the truth,
[Gaug]she said, I need a[Em] good sleut[B]h
[Em]To save me from murder or ja[Am]il
I've [B]got over a ton [C#aug]of
[Em]Ka bul number one
And the victim [B]of VAT on my [Em]tail[B]
[Em]I'm [E]the priv[Em]ate dick[Bm][A]
[B]I'm the private [E]face
[C#]I'm the private eye,[F#m]
in the private [G#]place[B]
She said, [Em]he's the [B]real snag,
he's [Em]the king of the [B]blag
[Gaug]And he's[Em] kno[Gaug]wn to be har[Em]d
[E]in the chase[Am][B][Am]
[B]He stays in the shade
when he's [Em]plying his trade
They [C]call him [Am]the man [B]with no face
With [Em]no mo[B]re ado, I sa[Em]id,
no fucking thank [B]you,
and [Em]I started to shower the [Am]door.
Went [B]into my day,
[F#dim]stepped a[Em] man dressed i[Am]n grey,
[B]whose face [Am]was a[B] mask, n[Em]othing m[B]ore.
[Em]He made it quite[B] clear
[Em]that he wanted his gear,
by jobbing me straight in [E]the chops.[Am]
It [B]isn't much fun when
[Em]the business gets done,
but [C]it's ever so nice when
[B]it stops.
[A]Whereupon, [Em]I offered him c[B]oke,
[Em]which by way of a joke,
was a mixture of acid [Am]and smack.
[B]Like a jolly goo[Em]d sport,
he had a [B]huge snore,
but very [Em]soon, flat [B]on his back.
[Em]I'm [E]the private face[B],
[A]rea[B]ch for the sky[E]
[D]I'm [C#]the priv[C#aug]ate dick, [C#]in t[F#m]he private eye[G#][B][C#m]
[D][C#m][D][C#m]
[D][B][A][B][Em]
[G][Em][Gaug]
So [Em]we had it away [Gaug]for
a [Em]year and a day
[Gaug]With a t[Em]hree -ton truck and a tent[Am]
Our [B]large lump of hash
made us [Em]bundles of cash
Cos [C]we sold some wherever we went
[B]And [Em]I ain't heard no [B]trace
of the [Em]man w[B]ith no face
[Em]and I hope it's [E]just how it [Am]stays[G][C]
[Em]because [B]we've got enough though
to be able [Em]to cope with our [B]needs
for the rest of our [Am]days[B]
[Em]I'm the [A]private [B]dick[A]
[B]I'm the private [E]face[D]
[C#]I'm the private [F#m]eye
[A]In the private [G#]plane
