Em     Bm           Am
Do the bad thing,
             G       F#      Em
Take off your wedding ring
                  Bm           Am
But it won't make it that much easier,
              G        F#
It might make it worse

       Dm
Oh the nights like a whirlwind
                          Am
Somebody's girlfriend's talkin' to me but it's alright
                 Dm
She's sayin that he's not gonna slap me or try to attack me
Am
Hes' not the jealous type
      Dm                         Am
And I only need to get half an excuse and I'm away
       Dm                                Am
But when there's no excuses that's much easier to say


               Dm
I've been before
                       Am                           Dm
And all these capers makers too good for her to ignore
                         Am
Well She's talkin but I'm not entirely sure


Dm Am  x3
G F#


Em     Bm          Am
Do the bad thing
             G       F#      Em
Take off your wedding ring
                 Bm           Am
But it wont make it that much easier
                G      F#
It might make it worse


     Dm                                          Am
Oh I'm stood at the bar and somebody's partner's talkin to me
                              Dm
But I don't know that is what she is
                                   Am
And she murmurs things to confirm that the tragedy is true
       Dm                                   Am
And I knew how could she not she could have anyone she wants
        Dm                            Am
And I'm strugglin to think of an immediate response

              Dm
Like I don't mind
Be a big mistake
    Am
For you to wait
                      Dm
And let me waste your time
                 Am
Really Love it's fine
                       Dm Am x3  G F#
Said really Love it's fine

             Em                                   Bm
And then the first time it occurred that there was something to destroy,
  Am                               G              F#
I knew before the invitation that there was this ploy
   Em
Oh but she carried on suggesting
    Bm
I struggled to refuse
     Am                                        G       F#    Em*
