Intro: C - Em - G - Em - G - Am - F 2x

Verse 1:
C        Em  G  Em  G   Am  F
I'm only 23 for another hour, give or take 
C     Em  G  Em  G     Am  F
I'm a fan of yours and I need a good mistake 
C         Em  G  Em  G        Am  F
I'm not a sinner or preacher, all I have is slight of hand 
C    Em  G  Em  G     Am  F
I do magic tricks for all the boys in the band 

Refrain:
Dm              F
Baby could I be the rabbit in your hat? 
Dm              F                       G
I'd swing if you'd hand me, hand me the bat 

Chorus:
C               Em  G  Em  G       Am  F
I'm on the road of least resistance 
C                  Em  G  Em  G        Am  F
I'd rather give up than give in to this 
C             Em  G  Em  G              Am  F
So promise me only one thing, would you? 
C               Em  G  Em  G      Am  F
Just don't ever make me promises, No promises 

Interlude:
C  Em  G  Em  G  Am  F 
                 Oh no Promises
C  Em  G  Em  G  Am  F
                 Oh...
Verse 2:
C          Em  G  Em  G      Am  F
I've never done this before, promises, promises 
C       Em  G  Em  G          Am  F
But I'm enjoying the illusion and the things my body says 
C       Em  G  Em  G           Am  F
Now you see me, now you don't, oh how well you disappear 
C        Em  G  Em  G     Am  F
What are you running from and may I interfere? 

Refrain:
Dm              F
Baby could I be the rabbit in your hat? 
Dm              F                       G
I'd swing if you'd hand me, hand me the bat oh oh
Dm              F
Baby could I be the rabbit in your hat? 
Dm              F                       G
I'd swing if you'd hand me, hand me the bat

Chorus:
C               Em  G  Em  G       Am  F
I'm on the road of least resistance 
C                  Em  G  Em  G        Am  F
I'd rather give up than give in to this 
C                  Em  G  Em  G         Am  F
So promise me only one thing, would you? 
C               Em  G  Em  G      Am  F
Just don't ever make me promises, No promises 

Instrumental:

I'm on the road of least resistance 
C                  Em  G  Em  G        Am  F
I'd rather give up than give in to this 
C             Em  G  Em  G              Am  F
So promise me only one thing, would you? 
C               Em  G  Em  G      Am  F
Just don't ever make me promises, No promises
