A B Cm sharp E I've been waiting six months for a sign that this is not a farce E I'm sick of having to read between the lines E I wrote a hundred letters without expecting a reply E I've made more phone calls than a wealthy guy A B The power of persuasion is lost on the young E CmSharp I wish that I still had it I know I'd bring it on A B CmSharp Take a chance on me is slipping off my tongue A B Cmsharp The strange thing is, I know I'm not the only one E Cmsharp I can do that! I can do that E A I can do that! i can do that You can do it! (Exactly the same chords for the next verse etc...) I'm standing in a queue just to prove that I am not a joke They ask you a question and look at you like you told a lie I've got enough bits of paper in my folder I've been coming here so long I know their middle-names The power of persuasion is lost on the young I wish that I still had it I know I'd bring it on Take a chance on me is slipping off my tongue The strange thing is, I know I'm not the only one I can do that! I can do that! (repeat)
