Intro:
B G A
D C
She takes her time when it's time to get ready
D C
Always has her way
D C D C
Always leaves me waiting by the phone

She told me more than once to take it slow
D C
And I said okay
D C D
But lately I've been sleeping alone
C
Whoa, Whoa
G A G A
I'm not breaking up inside I'm much too proud to moan
G A A# A
Baby, please come home
D C
And I feel a little lucky so I try to play it cool
D C
I think she laughs inside
D C D C
With the words that burn like fire in my mouth
D C
Try to be a man like I got the master plan
D C
Night out on the town
D C D
A drink and dance and we can turn it out
C
Whoa, Whoa
G A G A
Maybe it's how your body moves I just don't know
G A A# A
Maybe it's just the way you move so slow

D C
Ask me why I play myself
D C
Play myself for a fool
D C D C
Swear that I would do most anything, hey huh!
D C
Walk a mile to see her smile
D C
Walk a mile just to rock for a while
D C D
And babe, I'm thinkin' with my ding-a-ling
C
Whoa, Whoa
G A G A
I've been doing some thinkin', now I just don't know

Maybe just the way you move so slow

Maybe cause you move so slow

But sitting on the verge of tears
G A
Does not become my 22 years
B
You took my shame and you took my pride
G A
Now you gonna take me for a slow ride
D C D C
But uh, uh, waitin', waitin' on the phone
D C D C
You got the words that burn like fire in my mouth

Come on down, reggae style

Wind up your body like a bass line wild
D C D
Drink and dance and we can turn it out
C
Whoa!
G A G A
I'm not going crazy but I just don't know
G A A# A
Maybe it's just the way you move so slow
D C D C
Maybe 'cuz you move so slow
D C D C
Maybe 'cuz you move so slow
