A              G     D
Heaven is a disaster
Em                      G          A
And you won't get there any faster
A              G      D
Mine is a lazy bumpus
            Em                G         A
That's been left out here, in the rumpus


[Chorus]
D               Em
Do the shabby thing
     G    A
With you
D            Em
Separate the wood
         G    A
From the screw

D               Em
Do the shabby thing
     G    A
With you
D            Em
Separate the wood
         G    A
From the screw


[Verse]
A                 G         D
Yes, that was the best shot
Em                   G   A
Bleach is mixed with apricot
  A                 G      D
Regards are sent to authorities
Em         G         A
Maintain a set priority


[Chorus]
D               Em
Do the shabby thing
     G    A
With you
D            Em
Separate the wood
         G    A
From the screw

D               Em
Do the shabby thing
     G    A
With you
D            Em
Separate the lily
         G    A
From the dew

[Verse]
A                  G         D
Lest we forget the best part
Em         G        A
Elevate to a higher art
  A              G          D
Investigate such a stinking truth
Em          G          A
Positive in no need of proof


[Chorus]
D               Em
Do the shabby thing
     G    A
With you
D            Em
Separate the beef
         G    A
From the stew

D               Em
Do the shabby thing
     G    A
With you
D            Em
Separate the wood
         G    A
From the screw
