Tuning: E A D G B E

^CYou know some^Emtimes in your life you ^Fmay find it hurts to be in ^G7love ^CEspecially when you and the one you ^Emlove already ^Fbelong to somebody ^G7else

You're ^Ctied to her and I'm tied to ^Emhim And we ^Fdon't wanna hurt either one of ^G7them

That's how it is

When ^Cyou're married but not to each ^Emother ^FYou gotta go home in the middle of the night

Trying pretend every things alright

^G7But it ain't no it ain't

When ^Cyou're married but not to each ^Emother ^FMake believe that you've been good

Give your love to the one you should

^G7But you can't no you can't

Cause ^Fyou're tied to her and I'm tied to him

We don't wanna hurt either one of them

^G7So what can you do what can you do

When ^Cyou're married but not to each ^Emother ^FYou gotta be careful everywhere you go

Tryin' to avoid everyone you know

^G7Cause people talk you know they talk

When ^Cyou're married but not to each ^Emother ^FYou've gotta make up alibis

Hopin' they don't sound like lies

^G7Cause if you get caught and you might get caught

^FHurry up and love him hurry up and please him And when it gets right you've got to ^G7leave him

You better leave him

Cause ^Fyou're tied to her I'm tied to him

We don't wanna hurt either one of them

That's ^G7how it is that's how it is When ^Cyou're married but not to each ^Emother

^FHurry up and love him hurry up and please him And when it gets right you've got to ^G7leave him

You better leave him
