[C] [F#] [E]
[D] I'm
[A] [F#m]
[E] easy to resist temptation
Walking around looking like a big brother
Somebody else is a bad bitch
[D] Taking everyone she says just [Am] like an open [D] invitation
[A] The power of persuasion is no [C#] match for [F#m] anticipation
[E] Like a finger [A#m] rolling [A] downstream
[E] From a whisper [A#m] to a scream
[A] [E] So [D] I whisper [A] and scream [E] but don't get me wrong
[D] Please [A] don't leave me [B] waiting [Bm] too [C#] [F] long
[E] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, I'm just a little like it
But I'll keep my fair
You can keep my drink and we'll go dancing
[D] I heard someone say we're half women before
But the one [C#m] over the age seems less like one and more like four
[E] Like a finger [F#] rolling downstream
[A] see
[E] From a whisper [A#m] to a scream
[A] [E] [D] So I whisper
[A] But [E] don't get me [C#m] wrong
[D] Please [A] don't leave [B] me when you love when you [C#m] love when you [F] love
When you [B] love when you [Bm] love when [C#m] you [F] love when you [Bm] love
When you love when you [A] love when you [F] love when you [E] love
