ARTIST: Andrew Lloyd Webber

From the musical, Cats

The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat

Bb9If (x1011x@1)you offer me pheasant, I'd rather have grouse

Bb9 (x1011x@1)E (022100@1)   -     E7 (020130@1)    -      E (022100@1)     -     E7- (020130@1)If you put me in a house, I would much prefer a flat
       D (xx0232@1)   -     D7 (xx0212@1)    -      D (xx0232@1)     -     D7- (xx0212@1)If you put me in a flat, then I'd rather have a house
       E (022100@1)   -     E7 (020130@1)                      E7- (020130@1)If you set me on a mouse, then I only want a rat
       Dm7/G (000011@1)                                        Dm7/GIf (000011@1)you set me on a rat, then I'd rather chase a mouse

The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat

Bb9And (x1011x@1)there isn't any call for me to shout it

D (xx0232@1)           A/E- (002220@1)For he will do as he do do

F#m  -  A/E
And there's no doing anything about it

The Rum Tum Tugger is a terrible bore

Bb9When (x1011x@1)you let me in, then I want to go out

E (022100@1)    -      E7 (020130@1)    -     E (022100@1)-  E7- (020130@1)I'm always on the wrong side of every door
       D (xx0232@1)     -      D7 (xx0212@1)     -     D (xx0232@1)    -     D7- (xx0212@1)And as soon as I'm at home, then I'd like to get about
  E (022100@1)  -  E7 (020130@1)              E7- (020130@1)I like to lie in the bureau drawer
      Dm7/G (000011@1)                            Dm7/GBut (000011@1)I make such a fuss if I can't get out

The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat

Bb9And (x1011x@1)it isn't any use for you to doubt it

D (xx0232@1)           A/E- (002220@1)For he will do as he do do

F#m  -  A/E
And there's no doing anything about it

Am - D7 - Em

The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious beast

Bb9My (x1011x@1)disobliging ways are a matter of habit

E (022100@1)  -   E7 (020130@1)   -     E (022100@1)     -     E7- (020130@1)If you offer me fish, then I always want a feast
           D (xx0232@1)  -    D7 (xx0212@1)   -     D (xx0232@1)   -   D7- (xx0212@1)When there isn't any fish, then I won't eat rabbit
       E (022100@1)  -   E7 (020130@1)     -    E (022100@1)  -    E7- (020130@1)If you offer me cream, then I sniff and sneer
      D7For (xx0212@1)I only like what I find for myself

E7 -
So you'll catch me in it right up to my ears
       Dm7/G (000011@1)        -                Dm7/GIf (000011@1)you put it away on the larder shelf

The Rum Tum Tugger is artful and knowing
The Rum Tum Tugger

A7Doesn't (x02020@1)care for a cuddle
                      E7 (020130@1)But I'll leap on your lap in the middle of your sewing
            Dm7/G (000011@1)                                Dm7/GFor (000011@1)there's nothing I enjoy like a horrible muddle

The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat

Bb9And (x1011x@1)there isn't any need for me to spout it

D (xx0232@1)              A/E-- (002220@1)For he will do as he do do

F#m7 (131141@2) -    A/EAnd (002220@1)there's no doing anything
 D7abow, (xx0212@1)awow, about it!
