[Verse1]
E Asus2 Bsus2*
Six numbers, one more to dial
A
Before I'm before you
E Asus2 Bsus2*
I tried to call,'been busy all night
A
Gave up waiting at daylight
[Bridge1 sounding-stuff]
Asus2/E C#sus2 Bsus2
Excuse me, Ms. Busybody
Asus2/E F#* G#* Asus2/B
Could you pencil me in when you can?
Asus2/E C#sus2 C#sus2/D#
Though we both know that the worst part about it
Asus2 F#* Asus2/B A/B Asus2/C# A/C#
Is I would be free when you wanted me
[Chorus]
E Asus2 Bsus2* Bsus2*
I am the man on the side
E Asus2 Bsus2* Bsus2*
Hoping you'll make up your mind
E Asus2 Bsus2* C#sus2*
I am the one who will swallow his pride
Dsus2* C#sus2* E E
Life as the man on the side
[Verse again (instrumental only)]
[Verse2 (same as verse 1)]
One of the many, but one of the few
To stand back and wait for you
[Bridge1 Again]
[Chorus Again]
[Bridge2 ]
Csus2 Dsus2
I fell in love with the dream that I built of you
Asus2 (walkup to) Dsus2
Playing the part of the queen
Csus2 Dsus2
Taking my own advice, I'm giving up tonight
Bsus2 Asus2 G* F#* E
Good luck to you and the king
[SOLO]
[Bridge3 (like Bridge1 with a little more intensity)]
Asus2/E C#sus2 (slide down)
Excuse me, Ms. Busybody
Asus2/E C#sus2 Esus2
Could you pencil me in when you can?
Asus2/E C#sus2 C#sus2/D#
Though we both know that the worst part about it
Asus2 F#* Asus2/B A/B Asus2/C# A/C#
Is I would be free when you wanted me
And then big exciting ending Chorus
