ARTIST: David Yazbek
From the musical, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
Intro:
Cm7 Cm6 Cm7 Cm6
Cm7 Cm6 Cm7 Cm6
Cm7
You may be master of
Cm6 Cm7 Cm6
Your chosen occupation
Cm7
With several strings of
Cm6 D G7b5/C#
Polo ponies in your stable
Cm7 D#
You must remember all the same
G#(add9)
That at the crux of every game
C#7
Is knowing when it's time
Gm7b5
To leave the table.
Cm7 F9
And it's important to be artful
Cm7 F9
in your exit
D#
No turning back, you must accept
D#/G G#13
the con is done,
F#maj7#11
But now and then, you might recall
F9
The moments when you had it all
C#9
You had the charm,
You had the talent
G7(no3)
And, my God, you had some fun.
Cm9 F9
It was a ball, it was a blast
Cm9 F9
And it's a shame it couldn't last,
D#(add9)
But ev'ry chapter has to end,
D C#
You must agree.
Cm9 D#
It was a joy, it was sublime,
G#(add9)
A splendid way to earn a dime
C#7 G7(no3)
For a dirty rotten guy like
Cm9 F9 Cm9 F9
me.
Dm9 G9 Dm9 G9
Dm9 G9
When you look back on all your
Dm9 G9
conquests and deceptions
F
You see a thousand flawless pearls
F/A A#13
set in a strand,
G#maj7#11
Laid out from Biarritz to Rome,
G9
Each one as perfect as a poem
D#9
An opus to be proud of though it's
A7(no3)
written in the sand.
Dm9 G9
It was a ball, it was a thrill,
Dm9 G9
You had the grace, you had the skill
F(add9)
To know exactly what to say
E D#
And what to do.
Dm9 F
You wouldn't trade a single day
A#(add9)
Or have it any other way
D#9 A7(no3)
A dirty rotten guy like
A#9
me.
It's almost a religion
D#maj7
The need to take a pigeon
A#9
And to play your part
D#maj7
With elegance and zest
C#7
But when it's time to fold the act
F#(add9)
And your duffel bag is packed
F9
Take comfort in the fact
That you've been
A#9#11 A7#5
working with the best.
D#9#11
A7#9 Dm9 G9
It was a blast, it was a ball
Dm9 G9
It was a gas, I loved it all
F(add9)
'Cause I was hanging with the man
E D#
And that's a plus.
Dm9
You've got the verve
F
You've got the guts
A#(add9)
You've go the nerve
You've got the nuts!
D#9
I guess we're dirty rotten crooks,
Dirty rotten shnooks
A7 A#7#5
Dirty rotten guys
Oh
D#7#9 G#9
It was a trip, it was a blast
D#7#9 G#9
It was a shame it couldn't lsat
F#
'Cause it was almost
G#7
Too prodigious to discuss.
B9 A#7#5
So we got screwed for fifty grand
A13 G#9
I think we still deserve a hand
B9
Dirty
B9
Rotten
A#7#5 E9b5
Guys

Like us!
