Verse 1
Macavity's a mystery cat, he's (D major)
called the Hidden Paw
(E flatdim) For (E major) (A minor) he's the master criminal,
(C major) who can (D major) defy the (E flatdim) law
He's (E major) the (A minor) bafflement to (G major) Scotland Yard,
the (F sharpdim) Fly ing Squad's (F sharp minor) des (E major) pair
For when they reach the scene of (D major) crime,
(A minor) Macavity's not there. (F sharpdim) (A minor)
(F sharpdim) (E flat minor) (A minor) (E major) (A minor)
Macavity, Macavity,
there's (D major) no one like Macavity.
He's (A minor) broken every human law,
he (D major) breaks the (E flatdim) law of gravity.
His paws (A minor) of levitation
would (D major) make a fakir stare
And (E major) when you reach the
scene of (A minor) crime
Macavity's not there
You may seek him (Adim) in the basement
You may look up in the air (Cdim)
(E flatdim) But (Cdim) I (D major) tell you (E major) once and (D major) once again
(E major) Macavity's not there
(A minor) Macavity's a ginger cat
He's (D major) very tall and (E flatdim) thin
You (A minor) would know him if you (D major) saw him,
his eyes are sunken in
His (E major) (A minor) brow is deeply lined with thought,
his head is highly domed
His (D major) coat is dusty from neglect,
his whiskers are unconed
He sways (Cdim) his head from side to (E flatdim) side
with (G sharp major) movements (A minor) like a (F sharp major) snake
An (E flatdim) d (F sharpdim) when you (A minor) think
he's half asleep (E major) ,
he's (A minor) always (E major) wide awake
Macav (A minor) ity, Macavity,
there's (D major) no one like Macavity
But (A minor) he's a heathen of feline shape,
a (D major) monster of de (E flatdim) pravity
(D major) You may (A minor) meet him in the by street,
you may (D major) see him in the (E flatdim) square
But (D major) when the (E major) crime's dis (D major) covered,
(A minor) then Macavity's not (D major) there
(A minor) He's out (F sharpdim) wardly re (F sharp minor) spect (F sharpdim) able
(Cdim) But (C major) (A minor) I know he cheats (E major) at (A minor) cards,
(E major) and (A minor) his footprints
are (F sharpdim) not (F sharp minor) found
(F sharpdim) in (E flat major) any (C major) (A minor) file of
Scotland (E major) Yards.
(E major) And (E flatdim) when the (F sharpdim) lot is (A minor) looted
or (Cdim) the (E flatdim) jewellery (E flat minor) case is (Cdim) rifled,
(C major) or when the milk is (F sharp major) missing
Or (A minor) another beak (E major) 's been stifled (C major)
Or the (A minor) greenhouse glass is broken
And the trellis pass (D major) re (F sharpdim) pair (F major)
There's the (E major) wonder of the thing
Macavity's (E major) not there
Macavity, (A minor) Macavity
There's (D major) no one like Macav (E flatdim) ity
There (A minor) never was a cat
Of such deceit (D major) fulness and swervity
He (A minor) al ways has an alibi
And (D major) one or two to (E flatdim) spare
But there's a time (E major) the deed took place,
Macavity wasn't there
An (A minor) d they say that (E flatdim) all the (E flat minor) cats
whose (A minor) wicked deeds are (E flatdim) wildly known (F sharp major)
(F sharp minor) I might (D major) mention Mungo (E major) jerry,
Rumbleteasel,
Griddle (A minor) bone
Are nothing more than agents
for the cat (D major) who all the (F major) time
Just con (E major) trols the operations,
the Napoleon of crime (E major) (A minor)
Macavity, Macavity,
there's (D major) no one like Macav (E flatdim) ity
He's (A minor) a fiend, a feline shape,
a (D major) monster of de (E flatdim) pravity
(E major) You may (A minor) meet him in the 5th street,
you may (D major) see him (F sharpdim) in the (F major) square
But (E major) when a crime's discovered,
then Macavity's not there
