...MICHAEL CAINE... by Madness
-------------------...........
*from 'Keep Moving' (1984)*
*CAPO 3rd FRET*
               C
(Original Key: )
Intro:
A              F
 We'll get ya, ya ya,
G              Eb
 We'll get ya, ya ya. (I am Michael Caine).
Dsus4         D
 La la la la, la la la la.
Verse 1:
A
 He's walking where I'm afraid, I don't know,
F
 I see the firemen jumping from the windows.
E                     G             Eb     Dsus4  D
 There's panic, and I hear somebody scream.
A
 He picks up useless paper, and puts it in my pocket,
F                                        E
 I'm trying very hard to keep my fingers clean.
           G                           Eb
I can't re-member; tell me, what's his name?
Dsus4        D
 (My name is Michael Caine).
Chorus 1:
A          E            D              A        E7
 And all I wanted was a word, or photo-graph to keep at home.
A          E            D              A        E7
 And all I wanted was a word, or photo-graph to keep.
Verse 2:
A
 The sun is laughing; it's another broken morning,
F
 I see a shadow and call out to try and warn him,
E                  G                   Eb   Dsus4  D
 He didn't seem to hear; just turned a-way.
Bridge 1:
G          A                   C                 B
 The quiet fellow follows, and points his finger straight at you.
A          G             C               B
 He had to sacrifice his pride, yes, and throw it all away...
Interlude:
G EbD F DbCsus4    C
  ,     ,          
                 (I am Micheal Caine).
Chorus 2:
A          E            D              A        E7
 And all I wanted was a word, or photo-graph to keep at home.
A          E            D              A        E7
 And all I wanted was a word, or photo-graph to keep.
Verse 3:
A
 His days are numbered; he walks round and round in circles,
F                                       E
 There is no place he can ever call his own.
            G                        Eb    Dsus4  D
He seems to jump at the sound of the phone.
A
 Staring out the window, there's nothing he can now do,
F                            E                 G              Eb
 All he wanted has to remain sane; he can't re-member his own name.
Dsus4        D
 (My name is Michael Caine).
Chorus 3:
A          E            D              A        E7
 And all I wanted was a word, or photo-graph to keep at home.
A          E            D              A        E7
 And all I wanted was a word, or photo-graph to keep.
A          E            D              A      E7
 And all I wanted was a word, or photo-graph...
A          E            D              A        E7
 And all I wanted was a word, or photo-graph to keep.

Chorus 4:
A          E            D              A        E7
 And all I wanted was a word, or photo-graph to keep at home.
A          E            D              A        E7
 And all I wanted was a word, or photo-graph to keep.
