 Transcriber's Note:
 [Beware of the m/7/6 thingies which pop up here and there - they're the
 most sense I could make of the music.  Interpret them as you will.  I play
 Am+M6 as 004210, Bm+M6 as 444432 (with a lot of thumb, believe me) and
 Em7/Em+M6 as 020000 / 024000.]

Intro:
F#m  -  Bm  -
Bm+M6  C#  F#m  Bm / C#

1.
F#m         -     Bm        -
Night-time lady,  she says maybe
Bm+M6     C#        F#m        Bm / C#
  In the all-night laundromat

F#m        -     Bm       -
Wait one minute,  I have seen her
Bm+M6    C#     F#m   F#
She's a billionaire

Chorus:

Bm            D       E      A
   She was a hotel detective
               Bm          D
But now she's gotten her motive
G               G7            C
  I don't think it was the money
Am            Am7         Am+M6      B7
   She didn't care about expensive things
    Em                Em7           Em+M6    F#
No furs or pearls or fancy cars or diamond rings

|: Bm  D  E  A Bm  D :|  x6
She was a hotel detective
But now she's better connected
She didn't have to change anything
Just the stencil on her window

She used to be quite a lady
She drove the underworld crazy
But now she goes insane in her way
When it suits her occupation

She read that motel directive
It told her she was defective
I guess she found an easier way
Up the ladder and she took it

Bm        D        E          F#m   -
Now that lady is running the world

2.
Is she lonely?
She's the only
Girl in this back alleyway

Will she shoot you?
She won't have to
You're already dead

Chorus
