That's Why They Call It Cheating
Recorded by Jake Mathews
(Capo on 2)
[Intro]
D GF#m G A D F#m G A
D F#m G A D F#m G A
I get off work at four then I go home
D F#m G A D F#m G A
Watch the news and eat my dinner all a- lone
Bm A G F#m Em A
It's hard to start all over so un- prepared
D F#m G A D F#m G A
I guess that's why they call it cheating 'cause it ain't fair
D F#m G A D F#m G A
I guess that I should probably go to bed
D F#m G A D F#m G A
But I 'll just sleep on the ol' couch instead
Bm A G F#m Em A
'Cause that bedroom's full of memories that we shared
D F#m G A D F#m G A
I guess that's why they call it cheating 'cause it ain't fair
[Chorus]
G F#m
She said as she was leavin' there's never one good reason for a lie
G A
And as I stood there pleading the one I love the most told me goodbye
Bm A G F#m Em A
From now on you can trust me sweetheart heart, I swear
D F#m G A D F#m G A
She said that's why they call it cheating 'cause it ain't fair
D F#m G A D F#m G A
Guess that's why they call it cheatin' 'cause it ain't fair
D F#m G A D
That's why they call it cheating 'cause it ain't fair -----
