Mr. Usher (On His Way To Town)

[Intro] Gm

[Verso 1]

                              Cm
The shutters close when he's around
        D              D7              Gm                 G
The children shut their eyes in fear of what they must surmise
              Eb             F#º           Gm          Eb7
When all the gentlemen hang their heads down, down, down
          G#             D      Gm
Yeah Mr. Usher's on his way to town

[Verso 2]

Gm                                   Cm
He keeps his sights set straight and true
     D              D7
His idle hands wont flit or flutter
 Gm            G
Never does he slip or stutter
  Eb                 F#º       Gm    Eb7
Still his mind is menacing away
         G#              D      Gm
Yeah Mr. Usher's on the prowl today

[Verso 3]

Gm                       Cm
He needn't dirty up his hands
       D                D7
He'll twist your heart until you're manic
 Gm                G
Lost in endless streams of panic
 Eb                  F#º      Gm      Eb7
Pray you're not the one he finds
        G#             D       Gm
If Mr. Usher's got you on his mind

[Bridge 1]

Gm
Any time a plan will get a bit off track
C
He's the only one who can bring it back
F                                                 Gm
The main manipulator yeah the wolf who leads the pack
Gm
You better lock your doors and shut your windows tight
C
Pull the shades down and turn off the lights
F
Always be the hand that meets the teeth that bite
           D
Because if he has no use for you

[Bridge 2]

      Gm    D  F   C   Eb  Gm  A  D
He'll take you to the river
 Gm   D   F  C   Eb  Gm  A  D
Take you to the river

[Verso 4]

Gm                            Cm
He'll have you hanging by a string
    D            D7
Or noose if he prefers you perish
Gm                G
All your dreams become nightmarish
Eb                F#º       Gm     Eb7
If you block his path or plan
          G#           D       Gm
Yeah Mr. Usher always gets his man
          G#           D       Gm
Yeah Mr. Usher always gets his man
          G#           D       Gm
Yeah Mr. Usher always gets his man
