E                       D
Please allow me to introduce myself

       A                    E
I'm a man of wealth and taste

                       D
I've been around for a long, long year

     A                      E
stole many a man's soul and faith

                      D
and i was 'round when jesus christ

        A                   E
had his moment of doubt and pain

                    D
made damn sure that pilate

           A                       E
washed his hands and sealed his fate
[Chorus]
B
Pleased to meet you

                  E
hope you guess my name

but what's puzzling you

is the nature of my game
[Verse 2]
                   D
I stuck around st. petersburg

when i saw it was a time for a change

                       D
killed the czar and his ministers

     A                 E
anastasia screamed in vain
i rode a tank
       D
held a general's rank

         A
when the blitzkrieg raged

        E
and the bodies stank
[Chorus]
B
Pleased to meet you

                  E
hope you guess my name

is the nature of my game
[Verse 3] I watched with glee
  D
while your kings and queens

           A
fought for ten decades

         E
for the gods they made
i shouted out,
                D
"who killed the kennedys?"

      A
when after all

       E
it was you and me

               D
let me please introduce myself

     A                  E
i'm a man of wealth and taste

                     D
and i laid traps for troubadours

    A                                E
who got killed before they reached bombay
[Chorus]

                       D
Just as every cop is a criminal

    A                E
and all the sinners, saints
as heads is tails
             D
just call me lucifer

       A                      E
'cause i'm in need of some restraint
so if you meet me

have some sympathy, and some taste

                          D
use all your well-learned politesse

   A                     E
or i'll lay your soul to waste
