F#m            F#m/E           F#m/D
Girl! Why not take out the trash?
    F#m/C#           Bm                        C#    
And once you get him out, tell him not to come back again
F#m            F#m/E        F#m/D
Girl! Put that cat in the bin
      F#m/C     Bm              C#
After what he said, after everything he did

F#m
You had him figured out a while ago
And I know it's not exactly breaking news
But it's all been a little like a trial for you
        C#
And a bunch more talking won't make him true

(Same chords as chorus)
Ah, c'mon, Girl! Why not take out the trash?
And once you get him out tell him not to come back again
Girl! Why not give him the slip?
Get the crooked straight Get the go-getter good and gone

(Guitar break:  F#m -------- End on C#)

F#m
Why? It's so plain that he's just makin' it up
And he's still got you coming back for more
Why you never ever think of breaking it up
           C#
Tell me, what bad deal's gonna close that door?

Ah, c'mon, Girl! Why not take out the trash?
And once you get him out, tell him not to come back again
Girl! Why not give him the slip?
Get the crooked straight
Get the go-getter good and gone

(2nd guitar break): 
A  G  D  A  A  G  D  A

(Miller's lick, during which):
e|5--5-5-3--3-3-10--10-10-5--5-5-|

A       G              D             A
I'm not saying all the boys are the same
         G            D             G        A
But some boys are the same and it's Thursday now
(Repeat 2x)

(Back to F#m chorus)
Girl! Why not take out the trash?
And once you get him out, tell him not to come back again
Girl! Put that cat in the bin
After what he said, after everything he did

Girl! Why not take out the trash?
             F#m           E            A/D
Ah, come on, Girl! Why not take out the trash?
    F#m/B            Bm            Bm          Bm/C#
And once you get him out, tell him not to come back again
F#m           E               A/D
Girl! Why not give him the slip?
        F#m/B      Bm            Bm        C#
Get the crooked straight Get the go-getter good and gone

(End on F#m7)
