Cool For Cats (ver 6) by Squeeze

Squeeze - Cool For Cats
For me, this song is easier in D

 D
The Indians send signals
         Bm
from the rocks above the pass
    G
the cowboys take positions
       Em
in the bushes and the grass
    Bb
The squaw is with the Corporal
       Gm
she is tied against the tree
    Bb
she doesn't mind the language
         Gm
it's the beating she don't need
    Bb
she lets loose all the horses
        Gm
when the Corporal is asleep
       D
And he wakes to find the fire's dead
    Bm
and arrows in his hats
    G
and Davy Crockett rides around
    Em
and says it's cool for cats
               D       Bm
it's cool for (cool for cats)



    D
The Sweeney's doing ninety
             Bm
'cause they've got the word to go
     G
they get a gang of villians
     Em
in a shed up at Heathrow
        Bb
They're counting out the fivers
         Gm
when the handcuffs lock again
Bb
in and out of Wandsworth
         Gm
with the numbers on their names
     Bb
it's funny how their missus
       Gm
always look the bleeding same
    D
And meanwhile at the station
          Bm
there's a couple of likely lads
    G
who swear like how's your father
            Em
and they're very cool for cats
                  D         Bm               
they're cool for (cool for cats)



   D
To change the mood a little
          Bm
I've been posing down the pub
   G
on seeing my reflection
    Em
I am looking slightly rough
  Bb
I fancy this, I fancy that
  Gm
I want to be so flash
  Bb
I give a little muscle
      Gm
and I spend a little cash
    Bb                        Gm
but all I get is bitter and a nasty little rash
    D
And by the time I'm sober
        Bm
I've forgotten what I've had
    G                            Em
and everybody tells me that it's cool to be a cat
          D        Bm
cool for (cool for cats)

 

D
Shape up at the disco
      Bm
and I think I've got a pull
  G
I ask her lots of questions
        Em
as she hangs on to the wall
  Bb
I kiss her for the first time
    Gm
And then I take her home
      Bb
I'm invited in for coffee
      Gm
And I give the dog a bone
    Bb
She likes to go to discos
           Gm
But she's never on her own
  D
I said I'll see you later
      Bm
And I give her some old chat
    G
But it's not like that on the TV
Em
When it's cool for cats
          D        Bm
cool for (cool for cats)
