I'm Your Man:

Jazz Police

written by Leonard Cohen


 Gm                              Eb7
Can you tell me why the bells are ringing?
 Gm                              Ebm7  Dbm7
Nothing's happened in a million years
Gm                                      Gm13
I've been sitting here since Wednesday morning
 Eb7               Ab7             Gm
Wednesday morning can't believe my ears

Jazz police are looking through my folders
Jazz police are talking to my niece
Jazz police have got their final orders
Jazzer, drop your axe, it's Jazz police!
 Am9                    F/a
Jesus taken serious by many
 Am9         Asus2       Fm  Ebm
Jesus taken joyous by a few
 Am                              Am6
Jazz police are paid by J. Paul Getty
 F9                           Am

 Bb     Bbsus4 Gm11     D-5   Am  Am/e
Jazz police I hear you calling
 Bb     Bb-5   C11     E   Emaj7
Jazz police I feel so blue
 Db     Db-5    Absus4   F/a
Jazz police I think I'm falling
     Dmaj7       Bb+
I'm falling for you
Wild as any freedom loving racist
I applaud the actions of the chief
Tell me now oh beautiful and spacious
Am I in trouble with the Jazz police?

Jazz police are looking through my folders
Jazz police are talking to my niece
Jazz police have got their final orders
Jazzer, drop your axe, it's Jazz police!

They will never understand our culture
They'll never understand the Jazz police
Jazz police are working for my mother
Blood is thicker margarine than grease
 Am                     F/a
Let me be somebody I admire
 Am                               Fm  Ebm
Let me be that muscle down the street
  Am                         Am6
Stick another turtle on the fire
 Bb                              Am
Guys like me are mad for turtle meat
Jazz police I hear you calling
Jazz police I feel so blue
Jazz police I think I'm falling
I'm falling for you
