The Police


Tom: C

(F  C  Am  Bb )(x4)

F     C                Am       Bb F
I'd invite you back to my place
          C                Am      Bb       F
It's only mine because it holds my suitcase
              C          Am      Bb F
It looks like home to me alright
           C                  Am        Bb    F
But it's a hundred miles from yesterday night


F      C      Dm                F
Must I be the man in a suitcase
      C       Dm
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face
F      C      Dm                F
Must I be the man in a suitcase
      C       Dm
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face


F        C             Am     Bb F
Another key for my collection
      C         Am            Bb      F
For security I race for my connection
           C                  Am           Bb          F
Bird in a flying cage you'll never get to know me well
                C         Am             Bb
The world's my oyster, a hotel room's a prison cell


F      C      Dm                F
Must I be the man in a suitcase
      C       Dm
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face
F      C      Dm                F
Must I be the man in a suitcase
      C       Dm
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face

I'd invite you back to my place
           D               Bm       C       G
It's only mine because it holds my suitcase
               D          Bm     C G
It looks like home to me alright
           D                    Bm       C
But it's a hundred miles from yesterday night


G      D      Em                G
Must I be the man in a suitcase
      D       Em
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face
G      D      Em                G
Must I be the man in a suitcase
      D       Em
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face (repeat to fade)
