Intro:  E5  D5  A5  F#5

              E5 (alternate between E5 & E5 )
Oh it's not easy to resist temptation
          E5
Walking around looking like a figment of somebody else's imagination
D5
Taking ev'ry word she says just like an open invitation
        A5                         F#5
But the power of persuasion is no match for anticipation

Chorus:
       E5              Bb5      A5 E5
Like a finger running down a seam
E5                   Bb5   A5  E5
From a whisper to a scream
E5    D5
So I whisper and I scream
A5         E5   D5    E5    D5  E5
But don't get me wrong
D5            A5           B5
Please don't leave me waitin' too long
    B5
Waitin' too long
    F#5
Waitin' too long
    F5
Waitin' too long
      E5 D5 E5
Hey
   D5     E5     D5  E5
Oh oh oh oh oh
E5     D5   E5 (alternate between E5 & E5 )
Oh if the customers like it then they'll keep on paying
          E5
If they keep on drinking then they'll end up staying
D5
I heard someone say where have we met before
        A5                                 F#5
But the one over the eight seem less like one or more like four
