VERSE 1:
Dsus4 Em7 C+2 G (fill 1)
You look across the table with those guilty eyes
Dsus4 Em7 C+2 G (fill 1)
So many mornings now, I shouldn`t be surprised
Dsus4 Em7 C+2 G (fill 1)
When you lash out at me and you scream out in the night
Dsus4 Em7 C+2 G (fill 1)
What could you have done to get in such an awful fright?
Dsus4 Em7 C+2 G (fill 1)
Is it all that bad that you think I shouldn`t see?
Dsus4 Em7 C+2 C+2
Who`re you gonna talk to if you can`t tell me?
CHORUS 1:
Dsus4 G C+2 Dsus4 (with fill 2)
Where`d you hide the body?
Dsus4 G C+2 Dsus4 (fill 2)
Where`d you stash the loot?
Dsus4 G C+2
Keep your hands where I can see them
Dsus4 (fill 2) Em7 Dsus4
So I don`t have to shoot
C+2 Dsus4
There`s a smoking pistol at your side
G Dsus4 C+2
But you swear it`s not the one
G Dsus4
Where`d you hide the body?
Em7 C+2
Where`d you get the gun?
G Dsus4
Where`d you hide the body?
Em7 C+2
Where`d you get the gun?

VERSE 2:
When cornered you complain about the state of your career
You look intently straight ahead, pretending I`m not here
And you look me in the eye and say it`s not about us
You tell me I`m so silly to be making such a fuss
So everything`s okay except you`re nervous as a cat
What`s it say about me if you think I`d fall for that?
CHORUS 2:
Where`d you hide the body?
Where`d you stash the loot?
Keep your hands where I can see them
Maybe I won`t shoot
There`s a smoking pistol at your side
And you swear it`s not the one
Where`d you hide the body?
Where`d you get the gun? (fill 3 on C+2 chord)

CHORUS 3:
Where`d you hide the body?
Where`d you ditch the gun?
Keep your hands where I can see them
Make no attempt to run
You used to always throw me off your trail
But I guess those days are through
Where`d you hide the body?
What`s consuming you?
OUTRO:
G Dsus4
Where`d you hide the body?
Em7 Em7 Em7 Em7 G
What`s consuming you?
