Don't Act So Bad Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]I used to have a little girl,

[Verse 2]
man was she a queen.
[G]She'd step out and paint the town,
she would treat me mean.

[Verse 3]
[G]Worked guys,
give them eyes right behind my back.
I made up my mind if she [E]didn't stop,
I [A]would send her back
To that [D]old house [G]where she came [A]from,
on [D]the other [A]side of town
There [D]ain't no [G]streets, [A]just back [G]lanes,
[D]no grass [G]on the ground
[A]I gav[D]e her a bre[G]ak and she tri[A]ed
to take [D]everything [G]that I had
[A]Why[G] can't [D]she be [G]a dec[A]ent sort?
Oh, [D]please don't act so bad
Please don't act so bad
Please don't act so [G]bad
She said that she was sorry
And to give her another chance
One more trick like that
Then I'm gonna put an end
to our romance
Those big brown eyes looked up at me
You sure did have a knack
To make a fool out of me
[E]Watch you see,
[A]I'm gonna send her back.
That [D]old house [G]where she [A]came from,
on the [D]other [G]side of [A]town.
There [D]ain't no [G]streets, [A]just back lanes,
[D]no grass [G]on the [A]ground.
I [D]gave her a [G]break and she [A]tried to
[G]take [D]everything [G]that I [A]had.
Why [D]can't she [G]be a [A]decent sort?
Oh, [D]please don't act so bad.
Please don't act so bad.
Please don't act so bad.
Get out of my [G]sight!
[C]Just [G]last night she did it
Well, I was on the phone
She took off with another guy
Left me standing alone
This guy will soon discover
Exactly where he's at
Oh, too long, she'll [E]do him wrong
[A]He's gonna send her back
To that [D]old house [G]where she [A]came from
On the [D]other [G]side of [A]town
[G]There [D]ain't no [G]streets, [A]just back lanes
[D]No grass [G]on the [A]ground
I [D]gave her a [G]break and [A]she tried to
[G]take [D]everything [G]that I had
[A]Why can[D]'t she be [G]a dec[A]ent sor[G]t?
Oh, [D]please don't act so bad
Oh, please don't act so bad
Please don't act so bad
Yeah, baby,
you're gonna find out pretty soon
Nobody [D]ever gonna give you love like I do
I gave you everything [D]I possibly could
And all you ever gave me was
misery in [D]return, baby
But you're gonna find out someday
You're gonna end up with
[D]a broken heart, baby
And you know why?
You never see nobody like me, too
