   It's a mystery to me - the game commences 
                     A/C# 
   For the usual fee - plus expenses 
G/B                         F/A 
   Confidential information - it's in a diary

   This is my investigation - it's not a public inquiry

   I go checking out the reports - digging up the dirt 
                                A/C# 
   You get to meet in all sorts - in this line of work

   Treachery and treason - there's always an excuse for it

   And when I find the reason - I still can't get used to it

   A bottle of whisky - and a new set of lies 
C                              B 
   Blinds on the windows and a pain behind the eyes
