Lyrics

(Am)Don’t you dis re (F7)spect me, lit tle (Am)man!

(F7)Don’t you der o (Eb7)gate or de (D7)ride.

You’re in (Am)my world (Am)now, not (Am)your world, and (Am)I got friends on the (E7)oth er side.

(CN.C.)(He’s got friends on the oth er side.)

Sit down at my ta ble,

put your minds at ease.

If you re (C7)lax, it will en (F7)a ble me to do an y thing I please.

I can (E7)read your (Am)fu ture, I (Am)can change it ’round some, (Am)too.

I’ll (E7)look (Am)deep in (C7)to your (F7)heart and soul

make your (Am)wild est (E7)dreams come (Am)true.

I got voo doo, I got (Am)hoo doo, I got (D7)things (E7)I ain’t e ven (F7)tried.

And (Am)I got friends on the (E7)oth er side.

(He’s got friends on the oth er side.) The (Fm)cards, the cards, the cards will tell the (Am)past, the (F7)pres ent and the (Am)fu ture (E7)as (Am)well.

The (Fm6)cards, the cards, just take three: (Am)take a (Am)lit tle (Am)trip in (F#)to your (F7)fu ture with (E7)me.

Now (F)you, young (C)man, are from a (Cmaj7)cross the (F)sea.

You come from (C)two long (Cdim7)lines of roy al (C)ty.

Your (C)life style’s (Ab7)high, but your (C)funds are (D)low.

You need to (Am)mar ry a (Am)lit tle (F7)hon ey whose (E7)dad dy got (Am)dough.

It’s the (Am)green, it’s the (Am)green, it’s the (Am)green you (F7)need.

And when I (Am)looked in to your fu ture, it’s the (F7)green that (E7)I (Am)seen.

(C)On you, lit tle (G)man, I don’t wan na (C)waste much (G7)time; you been (C)pushed ’round (G7)all your (C)life.

You been (F)pushed ’round by your (C)moth er and your (Ebdim7)sis ter and your (Ddim)broth er, and (C)if you was (A)mar ried, you’d be (D9)pushed ’round by your (G)wife.

But (Am)in your (C)fu ture, the (D5)you (E7sus)I (F7)see is ex (E)act ly the man you al ways (F7)want ed (E)to (Am)be.

(Am)Yes!

Are you (Am)read y?

(Are you (Am)read y?) Are you read (Am)y?

Trans for (E7)ma tion cen tral.

for ma tion cen Re for ma tion cen tral.

for ma tion cen Trans mod i fi ca tion (Am)cen tral.

Can you (E7)feel (Am)it?

You’re (Am)chang (G)ing, (Am)you’re chang (G)ing, (Am)you’re chang ing all right; I (G)hope you’re sat is (Am)fied.

But if you (Am)ain’t, (F7)don’t blame me!

You can (Am)blame my friends on the (E7)oth er (Am)side!

(You (E7)got what you want ed...)

(...but you (Dm)lost what you (E7)had.) (Am)Ooh,

hush!
