[Verse 1]
G# C# Cm7 C#
Sam Bridges burned down to El Paso, chasing the sound of speed
D# Fm7 C#
Long and lean in tight blue jeans, singing baby you got what I need
D# G#
But leave me be, leave me be
[Verse 2]
G# C# Cm7 C#
F king with his crown of cigar smoke, and a golden chevrolet
D# Fm7 C#
Boy could tell a dirty joke like a catholic cabaret
D# G#
But anyway, anyway
[Chorus]
C# D# G#
I don't recall what I saw Mr Policeman
C# D# G#
I couldn't say which way he might have gone
C# D# G# G#/G Fm7
Last I knew he was through with monkey business
C# D# G#
Please excuse me and I'll kindly move along
[Verse 3]
G# C# Cm7 C#
Sun come up all black and blue, sipping on bathtub gin
D# Fm7 C#
The holy ghost is tearing through, and he takes the moonlight with him
D# G#
Just play it cool, play it cool
[Chorus]
C# D# G#
I don't recall what I saw Mr Policeman
C# D# G#
I couldn't say which way he might have gone
C# D# G# G#/G Fm7
Last I knew he was through with monkey business
C# D# G#
Please excuse me and I'll kindly move along
