E D Please allow me to introduce myself A E I'm a man of wealth and taste E D I've been around for a long, long year A E Stole many a man's soul and fate E D I was 'round when Jesus Christ A E Had his moments of doubt and pain E D Made damn sure that Pilate A E Washed his hands and sealed his fate B Pleased to meet you E Hope you guess my name B But what's puzzling you D E Is the nature of my game E D I stuck around St. Petersberg A E When I saw it was a time for a change E D Killed the Czar and his minister A E Anas Anastasia screamed in vain E D I rode a tank, held a General's rank A When the Blitzkrieg raged E And the bodies stank B Pleased to meet you E Hope you guess my name,oh yeah B But what's puzzling you D E Is the nature of my game,oh yeah E I watched with glee D While your kings and queens A Fought for decades For the Gods they made E I shouted out D "Who killed the Kennedys?" When after all A E It was you and me E D So please let me please introduce myself A E I'm a man of wealth and taste E D And I laid traps for Troubadours A E Who get killed before they reached Bombay B Pleased to meet you E Hope you guess my name,oh yeah B But what's puzzling you D E Is the nature of my game,oh yeah, get down, baby B Pleased to meet you E Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah B But what's confusing you E Is just the nature of my game E D Just as every cop is a criminal A E And all the sinners Saints E As heads is tails D Just call me Lucifer D A 'Cause I'm in need of some restraint E So if you meet me D Have some courtesy A E Have some sympathy, and some taste E D Use all your well-learned politesse A E Or I'll lay your soul to waste, um yeah B Pleased to meet you E Hope you guess my name,um yeah B But what's puzzling you E Is the nature of my game,um baby, get dow......B-E-B-D-A-E (GUITAR SOLO)
