Foreplay:
G-D-Am-D-G
Verse:
G                          D 
Now in this town there's a joke going 'round
    Am                  D
And everyone says it's you
        G                               D
They're fazed, they're crazed, they're constantly amazed
       Am                 D 
At the things you say and do
    G                   D
He lies, he steals, he cheats on you
    Am                D 
And comes back in the end
         G                 D
You say "man, I'll do anything you want,
               Am           D
        don't leave me again"

Chorus:
G C  D   G         C               D
Carolyn, can't you see what you're doing
G C  D   G         C           D
Carolyn, step outside of the ruin

You sit home alone by the telephone,
Playing it tit-for-tat
Well, I don't mean to get all in the air
But I think you're better than that
He'll hold you down, he'll pin you down
and make you holler, "When!"
You say, "man I'll do anything you want
        Don't leave me again"
Carolyn, can't you see what you're doing
Carolyn, step outside of the ruin

Well I ain't no knight in shining armour
coming to rescue you
I'm crazy, I'm lazy and I think you know I get mean
When i've had a few
But I'm not the kind to shake you down
and peck at you like a hen
C'mon baby, take a walk with me now 
and start all over again

Carolyn, can't you see what you're doing
Carolyn, step outside of the ruin
Carolyn, can't you see what you're doing
Carolyn, step outside of the ruin
step outside...
