       Am                          F 
It was way after midnight, all the village was asleep 
      G                                       Gadd9     F 
All except for one young villain, through the night did creep 
        Am                          G 
He went down to the church, started ringing the bell 
F                           G                          Am   G Am G 
Everybody came out looking, running like the hounds of hell 
  
  
           Am                             F 
'There are lights in the castle, they are blazing all night long 
       G                            Gadd9           F 
Let me tell you everybody, there is something going on' 
        Am                           G 
So they took to the torches and went over the wall 
F                             G                     Am   G Am  
Someone went ahead to tell of horrors hiding in the hall

C G Keep away, keep away, F G They are making the perfect man C D Keep away, (keep away), keep away, F G Am G Am G Am G Am G They are making the perfect, making the perfect man!
Am F So they called for the doctor, the doctor said, 'It's strange G Gadd9 F He's got pistols on his fingers, he's got love on the brain Am G He's got a tongue good for lying and the legs to run away F G Am G Am He will fool all the people, all the time some day!'

C G Keep away, keep away, F G They are making the perfect man C D Keep away, (keep away), keep away F They are making the perfect, making the perfect, G Am G Am G Making the perfect man!
