[Intro]
C#m7
[Verse 1]
C#m7
Well, I lost you at the border when you crossed it
C#m7
Had your number, baby, but I lost it
F# C#m7
I know your love was just a flim flam
[G#7 B F#] C#m7
No, you can't pull the wool over me, 'cause I'm a confidence man
[Verse 2]
C#m7
I can talk old ladies out of all of their money
C#m7
I can talk young girls into calling me honey
F# C#m7
You can talk all you want, babe, but I got fast hands,
[G#7 B F#] C#m7
You're a real soft touch, but I'm a confidence man
[Bridge]
F#
I know your mother taught you how to bake a cherry pie and read a book
C#m7
Your daddy taught you how to tell a lie and not get shook
F#
Let me tell you something, baby, you better learn
G#7
If you're gonna con the con man, you're liable to get burned
[Verse 3]
C#m7
Now, now, now, we were stretched out on the floor, baby, it's all elastic
C#m7
But you stretched it too tight and it snapped like plastic
F# C#m7
And the pieces went flying across the badlands
[G#7 B F#] C#m7
No discouraging word could be heard, 'cause I'm a confidence man
[Verse 4]
C#m7
Now, maybe Chicago is where you're bound
C#m7
But love is a cheap perfume, it hangs around
F# C#m7
And you roll the dice, now let the bet stand
[G#7 B F#] C#m7
No, you can't pull the wool over me, 'cause I'm a confidence man
[G#7 B F#] C#m7
No, you can't pull the wool over me, 'cause I'm a confidence man
[G#7 B F#] C#m7
Said, you can't pull the wool over me, 'cause I'm a confidence man
