  			Intro:  
    A         G     D         A        E           B           E 
B |------------------------------------2-0-----------------------|

E                        E/G# 
Every word pronounced distinctly, slowly  
          E                        E/G# 
There are no contractions, nothing slurred  
A                       A/C# 
Unprepared you watch in rank amazement  
        A                       A/C# 
As she lights her cigarette and stirs  
 
Bm                           F#m    
Every motion is complete, no editing of anything  
  E                           E/D#                      A/E 
Encouraging, encouraging, and not the customary bill of fore  
                  A       G          D 
Can't you see the lady is lingering (lingering)  
A           E                           B                E   
This lady's lingering, and you cannot believe the reason why  
 Every sip is of the smallest quantity  
That still denotes apparent thirst  
Every question is a means to draw long answers  
Play the fool, it doesn't hurt  
 
Splitting, spliting headache coming Get up early in the morning  
Where are the funny phrases that are always followed by goodbye  
 
Chorus  
 
Dm            C             Dm                C 
Is it now all up to you, do you now guide the evening, 
   Dm             C			 Dm      C        A 		      
or do you await a further signal, a look, a touch, a sigh  
 
Chorus  
 
Dm                        Bb 
Risky business, all this waiting, wondering  
  A                        Em     
A risky business, all this waiting, wondering (repeat)  
 
Chorus
