The Kinks – Definite Maybe (Guitar)

D
Got a letter through the post that says I don't exist.

D
Apparently the new computer thinks I won't be missed.

D
We need more facts, perhaps you would find out and forward them.

D
There's no proof or trace or date or place or where or when.

Am           G               D
Central Information's got no news today

Am           G             D
Is there a change in my position?

D                      C G
No decision, no decision.

     G G C                     C G G G C
All I ever get is a definite maybe.

D
Head office thinks I'm dead,

D
But I'm not even ill.

D
How do I get attention,

D
Tell me who I have to kill.

Am          G              D
Is there a change in my condition?

D
Not today.

Am                      G
The answer comes with repetition,

D
No decision, no decision.

G         G/F#        Em     Em/A
Round and round the circle goes,

G         G/F#           Em       Em/D
Stood in line but the counter was closed

C          C/B           Am      Am/G
And when I ask who is responsible,

       D           D
Nobody knows, "Try one of those."

G        G/F#            Em  Em/A
All I want is a yes or a no,

G         G/F#                   Em     Em/D
But all I ever get is a definite maybe.

C         C/B            Am    Am/G
Tried to make my life a misery,

D
But they don't want to know,

D
They don't want to know,

D
They don't want to know.

D
And all I ever get is a definite maybe.

D                    G G C
No decision, no decision.

D
Surely there must be a way to open all the doors,

D
And  wade  through all the petty  bureaucratic little laws.

D
Frustration  everywhere I turn, I just get more and more.

D
Everyone's got problems and they've heard all mine before

G                G/F#           Em   Em/A
Oh I'm tired of  making endless calls.

G          G/F#             Em  Em/D
Banging my head against the wall.

C        C/B             Am      Am/G
I walk along an endless corridor,

                    D                D
Then I knock on the door, then I realize

                         G
That I've been there  before.

        G/F#            Em   Em/A
No one here can hear my case.

G             G/F#              Em    Em/D
So all I ever get is a definite maybe.

C                 C/B             Am                Am/G
When they say "no news today, get back in the queue,"

           D              D              D   C D G G C
What can I do? What can I do? What can I do?

C D G G C
No decision, no decision.

C D         G G C                                  C D          G G C
All I ever get(no decision) is a definite maybe(no decision).
