Watch That Man

G, Cadd9, Em, A

[Verse 1]
A
Shakey threw a party that lasted all
 night
D
Everybody drank a lot of something 
nice
              E
There was an old fashioned band of 
married men
                        F#m
Looking up to me for encouragement -
 it was so-so
A
The ladies looked bad but the music 
was sad
D
No one took their eyes off Lorraine
     E
She shimmered and she strolled like 
a Chicago moll
Her feathers looked better and 
F#m
better - it was so-so

[Bridge]
D           A
Yea! it was time to unfreeze
         B                        
When the Reverend Alabaster danced 
D
on his knees
D           A
Slam! so it wasn't a game
E
Cracking all the mirrors in shame

Continues after the ad
[Chorus]
A     D    G                    
Watch that man! Oh honey, watch 
     C
that man
   D                              
He talks like a jerk but he could 
C                       G
eat you with a fork and spoon
A     D    G                    
Watch that man! Oh honey, watch 
     C
that man
   D                         C    
He walks like a jerk, but he's 
                     B
only taking care of the room
           C
Must be in tune

[Instrumental]
G, Cadd9, Em, A, G, Cadd9, Em, A

[Verse 2]
A
A Benny Goodman fan painted holes in
 his hands
   D
So Shakey hung him up to dry
    E
The pundits were joking, the 
manholes were smoking and every 
bottle battled
         F#m
with the reason why
    A
The girl on the phone wouldn't leave
 me alone
  D
A throw back from someone's LP
  E
A lemon in a bag played the Tiger 
Rag
And the bodies on the screen stopped
 F#m
 bleeding

[Bridge 2]
D           A
Yeah! I was shaking like a leaf
      B                      
For I couldn't understand the 
     D
conversation
D        A                 E
Yeah! I ran to the street, looking 
for information

[Chorus 2]
A     D    G                    
Watch that man! Oh honey, watch 
     C
that man
   D                              
He talks like a jerk but he could 
C                       G
eat you with a fork and spoon
A     D    G                    
Watch that man! Oh honey, watch 
     C
that man
   D                         C    
He walks like a jerk, but he's 
                     B
only taking care of the room
           C
Must be in tune
