Em B7 Em
[Verse 1]
Em
You've seen him on the street today
Em
Heading for some sleaze caf'{e}
Am
He wasn't alone
Em
He wasn't alone
Em
Some beauty hung onto his arm
Em
I shouldn't need to be alarmed
Am
He's done it before
Em
He's done it before
B7
Where and how?
Em
I don't want to know
[Chorus]
Am
You think she's one of his old flames
Em
Some firey-looking kind of dame
Am
You found her dull but just the same
B7
She stole the show
Em
I don't want to know
Am
Isn't it a crying shame
Em
You wouldn't mention any name
Am
Afraid I couldn't stand the pain
B7
Or take it the blow
Em
Well, I don't want to know
[Bridge]
Em Am Em B7 Em
[Verse 2]
Em
You've seen him on the downtown side
Em
Drinking hard and acting wild
Am
He was not alone
Em
Not on his own
Em
You say he looked a sorry sight
Em
You know he's had another fight
Am
He's done it before
Em
Yes, he's done it before
B7
Where and how?
Em
I don't want to know
[Chorus]
Am
A smile breaks on your poker face
Em
Tells me you're gonna throw the Ace of Spades
Am
Drop it, and watch me fall on evil days
B7
And let me go
Em
I don't want to know
Am
Why don't I try to understand
Em
He's just as weak as any other man
Am
He'll come back to me in the end
B7
Isn't that so?
Em
I don't want to know
