Chorus
[Em]Do the [Bm]bad thing
[Am]Take off your [G]wedding [F#]ring
[Em]But it won't make it [Bm]that much easier
[Am]It might make it [G]worse [F#]
Verse 1
Oh, the [Dm]night's like a whirlwind
Somebody's girlfriend is [Am]talking to me, but it's alright
She's saying he's [Dm]not gonna slap me or try to attack me
[Am]He's not the jealous type
And I [Dm]only need to get half an ex[Am]cuse and I'm away
But [Dm]when there's no excuses, that's much [Am]easier to say
Bridge
I've been be[Dm]fore
And all the capers [Am]make us to look for it to ig[Dm]nore
She's talking but I'm [Am]not entirely sure, oh!
[Dm] [Am] [Dm] [Am]
[Dm] [Am] [F#] [G]
Chorus
[Em]Do the [Bm]bad thing
[Am]Take off your [G]wedding [F#]ring
[Em]But it won't make it [Bm]that much easier
[Am]It might make it [G]worse [F#]
Verse 2
Oh, a [Dm]sudden disheartener, somebody's partner's [Am]talking to me
But I don't know that is what she [Dm]isn't,
she murmurs things to confirm that [Am]the tragedy is true
And I [Dm]knew, how could she not? She could have [Am]anyone she wants
And I'm [Dm]struggling to think of an [Am]immediate response
Bridge
Like, "I don't [Dm]mind, it'd be a big mistake for [Am]you to wait
And let me waste [Dm]your time
Really, love, it's [Am]fine"
I said, "Really, love, it's [Dm]fine"
[Dm] [Am] [Dm] [Am]
[Dm] [Am] [F#] [G]
Verse 3
And for the [Em]first time, it occurred that there was [Bm]something to destroy
I [Am]knew before the invitation [G]that there was this [F#]ploy
Oh, but she [Em]carried on suggesting, a [Bm]struggle to refuse
She [Am]said, "It's the red wine this time," but [G]that is no ex[F#]cuse [Em]
