Capo on the first fret to match the record.

[Verse]
Dm
Well I had just met the girl and her boyfriend
Gm                      Dm
She was ready for leaving him
                  Am
And I was the way, I was the key
Gm                       Dm
I was her way to say 'I'm free'

Gm                                      Am
And he would never talk about it, which made me sad
Gm                   Am               Dm
I didn't see what we done that was so bad


[Chorus]
Gm               Am
We were all about 21
     Gm                 Am
My career as a homewrecker
        Dm
Had just begun


[Verse]
Dm
I was thinking about the Boston rock scene one fine day
    Gm                                   Dm
And found it too conservative, you might say
  Dm
I knew her well, I knew him terrific
       Am
What's wrong if we wanted something specific?


[Chorus]
   Gm                         Am
He never talk about it, which hurted me
 Gm                  Am            Dm
I never saw what that sorrow had to be


[Chorus]
Gm             Am
I was now about 24,
   Gm                Am
And I was called homewrecker
    Dm
Once more


[Verse]
Dm
If someone's mad at me, why can't they tell me so?
Gm
Why do they just avoid me?
Dm
If someone's mad at me, why can't they tell me so?
Am                      Dm
Because I would want to know


[Verse]
Dm
Meanwhile out on the west coast

I started wrecking homes
Gm                               Am        Dm
Tryin to convince girlfriends to leave and roam
Dm
Now I didn't touch them, cause I didn't want them
      Am                                       Dm
But I wanted to effect them, I wanted to haunt them


[Chorus]
    Gm                     Am
And this was the following year
   Gm                  Am               Dm
My career as a homewrecker was in third gear


[Verse]
Dm
Another case of homewreckin I have did
        Gm                                    Dm
Was the girl who loved me, no matter what she said
Dm
She tried to hide it, as long as she could
Am                         Gm               Dm
To save her boyfriend pain:   but it did no good


[Verse]
Dm
You see I have certain traits and certain wants
               Gm                                Dm
Sometimes I'll try a certain thing, to provoke a response
Dm
Sometimes I'll break a rule, just to see who looks
                      Am              Gm                 Dm
Sometimes I'll knock on a door,  just to see what cooks


[Verse]
Dm
My career as a homewrecker is not yet through
Gm                           Am        Dm
There's all these homewrecking things to do

Sometimes I'll break a rule just to see who cares
               Am                      Dm
Sometimes I'll knock just to see who's there
