E|E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------||
Tabbed by: Kengus

Standard tuning

Nice song this one, and quite easy to play. This is my interpretation.
Mostly simple chords, except for the D#/G perhaps, but look it up if you
have to - there are easy ways to play it. Have fun.

(INTRO: Bb)

VERSE1
Bb              (F) Gm
   Listen up destiny I know you wanna get pressed to me
C7         (C7/E)                                   D#
   So don’t be such a stone when I call you on the phone
              F                  Bb
or I won't be using that number again
                       (Bb/A) Gm
Maybe what you had was broke....you wanna get high and they don’t
C7           (C7/E)
   So I had a drink cause it helped me think
D#                       F
   Now you say I’ve been drinkin’ too much


PD-C HORUS
       Bb                         Bb/A
But my hands start shakin’ and my heart starts quakin’
     G#                   D#/G
like a nightmare naked in school. And I wanna tell you


CHORUS
C                G/B    Am                     Am/G   D/F#
   Wait a minute sister....I know I ain’t your mister yet
                            F        G         Am       G/B     C
Just give me the chance and see, but you won’t even get next to me
              G/B   Am                      Am/G    D/F#
What you wanna do now, you’re gonna have to give somehow
                            F         G         Am       G/B     Bb >>
and I've got that thing you need, but you won’t even get next to me


VERSE2
                    Bb/A  Gm
Once I get you in my grip....follow my eyes to your hips
C7          (C7/E)                         D#
   Don’t you pull away, you done it every day
                         F                         Bb
Just stay, why don’t you stay, why don’t you stay, baby
                          Gm
Put away your old disguise, you don’t want no other guys
C7           (C7/E)                                 D#
   We’re havin’ so much fun, I know you shouldn’t run
                      F                    C >>
But you run, you just run, you just run, baby

CHORUS (same as before, except for last chord)
Wait a minute sister I know I ain’t your mister yet
Just give me the chance and see, but you won’t even get next to me
What do you want to do now, you’re gonna have to give somehow
                            F         G         Am       G/B     C >>  
and I've got that thing you need, but you won’t even get next to me

INTERLUDE
         Dm            Am        F
Me here, heart in hand offering, what I can
G         Am            Dm            Fmaj7          G
Patience, running thin, come on girl, let me in, yeah

CHORUS (from here on, just repeat chorus until the end)
Wait a minute sister I know I ain’t your mister yet
Just give me the chance and see, you won’t even get next to me
What you wanna do now, you’re gonna have to give somehow
And I got that thing you need, but you won’t even get next to me

Wait a minute sister I know I ain’t your mister yet
Gimme a chance and see, oh but you won’t even get next to me
What you wanna do now, gonna have to give somehow
and I've got that thing you need, you won’t even get next to me

You won’t get next to me
Why, Why why why why why why whyyy
Ooh whoa whoa
Wait a minute
Ooooh whoa
F  G           Am       G/B       C
     You won’t even get next to me
