Verse 1
(G major) (F major) (E minor) Pacing through
the flickering (A major) light
A velvet patch upon his (C major) eye
His pacing creaks
the floorboards (F major) loose (D minor)
(F major) As he tailors his thoughts
for the truth around truths (G major)
(F sharp minor) But his butler keeps eyes
through a hole in (E minor) the door
(F sharp minor) What the butler don't see ain't
a lot that's (E minor) for sure
Francesca lays across the couch
(A major) They fight with words
from mouth to mouth
(C major) And then with handfuls of her (F major) flesh (D minor)
(F major) See how the zipper broke off
of her dress (D minor) (G major) (A major)
(F sharp minor) Strangling her neck with his
hands in (E minor) her gloves
The (F sharp minor) port and the brandy
mix cocktails (E minor) of love
Verse 2
(D major) The porch light, (F sharp major) the torchlight
The (G major) frosted morning (E minor) lawn
The cloak (D major) of day (B minor) light has
(E minor) finally been drawn (C major)
On the tale (B minor) of what (E major) the butler (A major) saw
(F sharp minor) (G major) (F major) (E minor)

Verse 3
He kept his world all to him (A major) self
And locked it tight inside his (C major) belt
But she preferred his belt (F major) undone
(D minor) (F major) She bathed in his
fortune but never his fun (G major)
(F sharp minor) He cracked on a mixture
of opera (E minor) and drink
(F sharp minor) The butler still fetches
and carries (E minor) for him
Verse 4
The butler dragged down to
the lake
(A major) Francesca's body in a cape
(C major) No private eye was gonna trace (F major) this (D minor)
(F major) The old man was shaking,
his marbles were missed (G major)
The (F sharp minor) shadows and footprints
and (A major) flicker (E minor) ing lights
(A major) The butler's up (F sharp minor) late with a cold in his (E minor) eye
Verse 5
(D major) The porch light (F sharp major) the torchlight
the (G major) frosted morning (E minor) lawn
The (D major) cloak of day (B minor) light has
(E minor) finally been drawn (C major)
On the tale (B minor) of what (E major) the butler (A major) saw (F sharp minor)
