          A
One at a time,
D                G              A           D G
always ready to fight over the little things
          A
One at a time,
      D                G              A           D  G
she's always ready to fight over the little things

  A                        C             D
She's goin' crazy and the table starts shakin'
  A                     E     G
She's been abusin' her body again
     A                        C              D
Her vision gets hazy and the bottles start breakin'
  E
She's been seeing that man again

Chorus:
        D
If you want her, you can keep her 'cause
                            A
I can only handle one at a time
                                               D
You can take her, I've got someone waitin' in line

And I'd like to, but
                            E
I can only handle one at a time, one at a time

I found out she's continually cheatin',
she insists she's so innocent
So I stayed out at another late meeting
and she waited up for the argument

Chorus

D
I'm moving on to something better
There must be something better than this
She's got me so confused
                  A
As to who's being used

Call her up right away, you've got her number
And I promise not to answer the phone
You can pick her up in your clapped-out Humber
I just hope it can get you home

Chorus
