Put a Little Aside

Em             D
Five times a year, I'll return
Em                        D
With a fake pay package that I 
didn't earn
Em                                
It's the benefits and little bits 
  D
I make sure I've got
Em                             D
I'm the one who works the oil rigs, 
but really I'm not
Em                               
I've got a wife and kid on the lower
D
 state
Em                             D
And it all started when I won a bet 
with my mate
Em                             D
He said, "You couldn't get her," I 
said, "I can"
Em                              D
I kissed her at the bar and this 
affair began

Em                            D
Two years down the line, I've got it
 worked out
Em
I've got a shift in the summer
             D
and the winter left out
Em                               
My wife thinks I'm crazy because I 
D
work all the time
Em                                
But she doesn't even notice, or even
D
 realize
Em                              D
But one day I must choose between my
 love and affair
Em
And I don't think I've got the guts
D
I ain't got the nerve
Em                                
It's such a hard decision to make me
D
 choose one
Em
But what they don't know won't hurt 
them
D
So I'll just carry on
