Lyrics and Chords


[Capo 1]

Times are hard, you're afraid to pay the fee
So you find yourself somebody who can do the job for free
When you need a bit of lovin' 'cause your man is out of town
That's the time you get me runnin', and you know I'll be around

/ Am Dm G C / F Bb C G - / 1st / F Bb C Dm - /

{Refrain}
I'm a fool to do your dirty work, oh yeah
I don't wanna do your dirty work no more
I'm a fool to do your dirty work, oh yeah

/ C F Am Bb / / / C F /

Light the candle, put the lock upon the door
You have sent the maid home early like a thousand times before
Like the castle in its corner in a medieval game
I foresee terrible trouble and I stay here just the same

{Refrain twice}
