Take off your shoes, hang    up your   wings
              F                  G
Stack up the chairs, roll up the rug
          E7             Am
Savor the things that sobriety brings
D7    D7sus4  D7  D7sus2  D7  (then a single note run..G on the bass Estring,then D E F 
the D string...)
Drain   in    the  last  from a jug

     C             G7                 C                 G7
But when I hit the bottle, there's no tellin' what I'll do
       C                 G7              C                  C7
'Cause something deep inside me wants to turn you black and blue
F          Ab7      C  E7     Am
I can't resist you, I  can't  wait
   D7                                G7
To twist your loving arms 'til you capitulate


C              G7                C                 G7
Beat me in the kitchen, and I'll beat you in the hall
        C              G7            C        C7
There's nothing I love better than a free for all
   F                Ab7                C   E7  Am
To take your pretty neck and see which way it  bends
    D7                          G7
But when it is all over we will still be friends


Am     AmMaj7 G7    Am           G7
Wave a white  flag, put away the pistol
Am       G7          C         C7
Too many people just can't get kissed
               F             Ab7          A7sus4  A7
But if there's nothin' I can do to make amends,   baby
Dm            Gsus4 G  C   C7
Hope you don't mur-der me


           Am  AmMaj7            Am AmMaj7
Oh, was it all right, or was it  o--kay
             Am        E7  Am  C7
I'll make it all up to you someday
            Dm             E7         Am
Oh, but you didn't have to laugh that way
            D7                        G     G7
Oh, no, you didn't have to laugh that way


Am     AmMaj7 G7    Am           G7
Wave a white  flag, put away the pistol
Am       G7          C         C7
Too many people just can't get kissed
               F             Ab7          A7sus4  A7
But if there's nothin' I can do to make amends,   baby
Dm            Gsus4 G  C
Hope you don't mur-der me
     A7    Dm             Gsus4 G   C
Gee, baby, hope you don't mur---der me
