Squeeze – Cool For Cats (Guitar)

    G
The Indians send signals

         Em
from the rocks above the pass

    C
the cowboys take positions

       Am
in the bushes and the grass

    Eb
The squaw is with the Corporal

       Cm
she is tied against the tree

    Eb
she doesn't mind the language

         Cm
it's the beating she don't need

    Eb
she lets loose all the horses

         C
when the Corporal is asleep

       G
And he wakes to find the fire's dead

    Em
and arrows in his hats

    C
and Davy Crockett rides around

    F
and says it's cool for cats

              G                Em
it's cool for cats (cooool for cats)

    G
The Sweeney's doing ninety

             Em
'cuz they've got the word to go

     C
they get a gang of villans

     Am
in a shed up at Heathrow

        Eb
They're counting out the fivers

         Cm
when the handcuffs lock again

Eb
in and out of Wandsworth

         Cm
with the numbers on their names

     Eb
it's funny how their missus'

       C
always look the bleeding same

    G
And meanwhile at the station

          Em
there's a couple of likely lads

    C
who swear like how's your father

            F
and they're very cool for cats

                 G                Em
they're cool for cats (cooool for cats)

   G
To change the mood a little

          Em
I've been posing down the pub

   C
on seeing my reflection

    Am
I'm looking slightly rough

  Eb
I fancy this, I fancy that

  Cm
I want to be so flash

  Eb
I give a little muscle

      Cm
and I spend a little cash

    Eb                        C
but all I get is bitter and a nasty little rash

    G
And by the time I'm sober

        Em
I've forgotten what I've had

    C                            F
and everybody tells me that it's cool to be a cat

         G                 Em
cool for cats (coooool for cats)

G
Shake up at the disco

      Em
and I think I've got a pull

  C
I ask her lots of questions

        Am
and she hangs on to the wall

  Eb
I kiss her for the first time

    Cm
And then I take her home

      Eb
I'm invited in for coffee

      Cm
And I give the dog a bone

    Eb
She likes to go to discos

         C
But she's never on her own

  G
I said I'll see you later

      Em
And I give her some old chat

    C
But it's not like that on the TV

F
When it's cool for cats

              G                 Em
It's cool for cats (coooool for cats)
