Chorus: Em Bm Do the bad thing Am G F# Take off your wedding ring Em Bm But it won't make it that much easier Am G F# It might make it worse Dm Oh, the night's like a whirlwind Am Somebody's girlfriend is talking to me but it's alright Dm She's saying that he's not gonna slap me or try to attack me Am He's 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 Am I've been before and all these capers make Dm her too forward to ignore Am She's talking but I'm not entirely sure Chorus Dm Oh, I'm stood at the bar and somebody's partner's talking to me but I don't know what that is What she isn't 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 struggling to think of an immediate response, Like "I don't mind, be a big mistake for you to wait and help me waste your time Really love it's fine", said "really love it's fine" Em Bm And 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 Bm Oh, but she carried on suggesting, I struggled to refuse Am G F# Em She said "it's the red wine this time but that is no excuse" | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsAm  Dm  Em  F#  G  Bm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
