Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
Once that you've decided on a killing,
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
First you make a stone of your heart.
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
And if you find that your hands are still willing,
F#7#9 FMaj7#11 Bm7
Then you can turn a murder into art.
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
There really isn't any need for bloodshed,
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
You just do it with a little more finesse.
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
If you can slip a tablet into someone's coffee,
F#7#9 FMaj7#11 Bm7
Then it avoids an awful lot of mess.
Em7 F#m7 G F#m7
It's murder by numbers, 1, 2, 3,
Em7 F#m7 G F#m7
It's as easy to learn as your ABC.
Em7 F#m7 G F#m7
Murder by numbers, 1, 2, 3,
Em7 F#m7 B7#9
It's as easy to learn as your ABC.
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
Now if you have a taste for this experience
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
And you're flushed with your very first success,
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
Then you must try a twosome or a threesome
F#7#9 FMaj7#11 Bm7
And you'll find your conscience bothers you much less
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
Because murder is like anything you take to
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
It's a habit-forming need for more and more.
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
You can bump off every member of your family
F#7#9 FMaj7#11 Bm7
And anybody else you find a bore
Em7 F#m7 G F#m7
It's murder by numbers, 1, 2, 3,
Em7 F#m7 G F#m7
It's as easy to learn as your ABC.
Em7 F#m7 G F#m7
Murder by numbers, 1, 2, 3,
Em7 F#m7 B7#9
It's as easy to learn as your ABC.
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
Now you can join the ranks of the illustrious
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
In history's great dark hall of fame.
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
All our greatest killers were industrious
F#7#9 FMaj7#11 Bm7
At least the ones that we all know by name.
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
But you can reach the top of your profession
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
If you become the leader of the land,
Em7 Bbsus2 B7#9 BbMaj#11
For murder is the sport of the elected,
F#7#9 FMaj7#11 Bm7
And you don't need to lift a finger of your hand
Em7 F#m7 G F#m7
It's murder by numbers, 1, 2, 3,
Em7 F#m7 G F#m7
It's as easy to learn as your ABC.
Em7 F#m7 G F#m7
Murder by numbers, 1, 2, 3,
Em7 F#m7 B7#9
It's as easy to learn as your A, B, C, D, E,.........
