Intro 

So you want my affection? 
We both know you'll only throw it away, but 
If you must have a go, 
Fine, okay 
If you must have a go,  
           F (leave the e string open on the F) 
then go away

F,C, 
F,G, 
            F 
I'm making eyes at you, 
           C 
I've been making these eyes, now 
                       F 
Making these eyes since '82 
            C                                       F 
I've been making them green, and grey, and brown and delta blues 
        C 
I'm reciting the Mantra,  
                          F 
But I cant tell you, cause you're missing to me, 
                 G 
That's all you'll ever be 

     F                           Am 
Oh, please don't, please don't, speak 
(Am) 
You'll kill the mystique 
F                      Am 
Let's not, let's not dance 
(Am) 
what are the chances of, 
F                 Am 
In between the drinks 
(Am) 
I cant help but think 
F                   G 
That even as we speak 
(G) 
we kill the mystique 

F,C, 
F,C, 
  
(same chords as before, but sounds better when palm muted and strumming throughout) 

You're missing to me  
and I'm missing much 
Your sleepy panda eyes, those dangerous thighs, your dirty touch 
You are the modest one,  
but you're the one that I want 
I'm making eyes at you, that's all I ever do 

Oh please don't, please don't speak 
 You'll kill the mystique, oh baby let's not, let's not dance 
 We'll ruin our chances of, in between the drinks 
 I can't help but think that, even as we speak 
 We kill the mystique 

(Instrumental break/Solo) F,C, 

So you want my affection 
 We both know you'll only throw it away 
 But if you must have a go, fine, okay 
 I said, if you must have a go then go away 

Oh please don't, please don't speak 
 You'll kill the mystique, oh baby let's not, let's not dance 
 We'll ruin our chances, oh in between the drinks 
 I can't help but think that even as we speak 
 We kill the mystique 

Outro fades with F,C, 

The (Am) means chord is continued through that next set of counts 

I did this all by ear but it sounds good to me, I usually just improvise the solo  
but once I figure out how its played ill post it in a separate tab. Enjoy.
