G5                 A5
I can't say I ain't been around
     C5               D5
That I ain't done my time
G5                A5
 Seems like this big old world
         C5               D5
Has been one big shoe to shine
      G5          A5
But I never ever took a dime
    C5                 D5
For what comes naturally
    G5          A5
And if I never knew the truth
     C5                  D5
Then she'd be fine with me
D5                    A5
One night she stayed over here
             C5                  G5
And left her little black book behind
          D5                       A5
Well that little black book ain't little no more
       C5                   G5
And it wasn't too hard too find
      D5                A5
She'd leave me in this lonely room
    C5                     G5
The thought just makes me sick
     A#5                   A5
It's funny how the pieces fit
                      G5           D5
My baby gets around a bit
    G5                        A5                      
Her pager would ring, it's a funny thing
      C5                 D5
She'd have to go right away
    G5            A5
She always has a wad of cash
     C5                       D5
Much more than her job could pay
    G5                   A5
I'd ask her where she's going to
    C5                  D5
And this is what she'd say
           G5                   A5
She had to meet someone for an interview
     C5              D5
he's only in town today
D5                   A5
Always a little bit overdressed
     C5                      G5
Much more than thought need be
D5                   A5    
High heel shoes and day glow dress
         C5                     G5
at 10:00 a.m seemed strange to me
      D5                A5
She'd leave me in this lonely room
      C5                   G5
While some schmoo got his fix
    A#5                          A5
And then the thought occurred to me
                      G5         D5
My baby gets around a bit
G5               A5
Took her to the local bar
C5               D5
Where I like to hang
G5             A5
Every guy who passed her by
         C5                  D5
They all seemed to know her name
         D5               A5
They all called her by a different name
     C5                G5
than what I knew it to be
     D5                   A5
Some guy named Stan said you're the man
  C5                    G5
I heard you get it for free
      D5                A5
She'd leave me in this lonely room
        C5                     G5
And the thought hit me like a brick
     A#5                   A5
It's funny how the pieces fit
My baby gets around a bit
My baby gets around a bit
My baby gets around a bit
