C7 f7

You let me in and I'll help you win

C7 g7

This chance must be heaven sent

C7 f7

You buy the time I sold you all mine

C7 g7

No-one knows the d. j.'s bent

C7 f7

I don't care if someone gets hurt

C7 g7

When I lose it feels like dirt

C7 f7

Other records, they get played,

C7 g7

Kick some heads in you get paid

F c f c

Man - oeu - vres, man - oeu - vres

C f g c f g

Baby don't ever make me wait fools and angels hesitate

Em g f c7 f7 c7 f7

My whole life is one more move too late

C7 f7

Here comes a man you just got to meet,

C7 g7

Shake his hand and kiss his feet

C7 f7

He claims the time is coming soon,

C7 g7

The first pop music on the moon

C7 f7

The agent of the devil's a hip shakin fool,

C7 g7

If he don't like you that ain't cool.

C7 f7

He's left already that's ok

C7 g7

We don't need him anyway

F c f c

Man - oeu - vres, man - oeu - vres

Baby don't ever don't make me wait fools and angels hesitate

Em g f c

My whole life is one more move too late

Downtown l.a. madam wong's,

C7 g7

Someone puts a tape on a couple of songs

C7 f7

Advertising the place next door

C7 g7

Madam finds out she'll sure gets sure

C7 f7

Out come the coolies, swinging their lead

C7 g7

Get those rockers, take their heads

C7 f7

Those poor souls must pay the price

C7 g7

They wind up in tomorrow's fried rice

Man - oeu - vres, man - oeu - vres
