Now I Lay Me Down To Cheat

                      Am    D
Now I Lay Me Down To Cheat
                      G
On the woman I love so
                             Am    
And if I die between these sheets
 D

                             G
I pray to God she?ll never know

G                            Am    D
She?s the best thing in his life
                     G
Why she worships the ground that he 
walks on

G                                 
She waits up for him at night and 
  Am     D
worries
                 G    Am
Till he?s safely home
She always believes his stories 
 D                     Am
about workin? over time
And in 20 years beside him
D                               G Am
Cheatin?s never crossed her mind

          D          G
Ah but it crossed his
Early last summer
In the person of a neighbor
                    Am     D  G
She still calls her friend
And with a little push from drinkin?
 one too many
                                 Am
One night in the fall, he gave in
        D
And now, he wishes he could stop 
himself
    Am
But there?s no easy way
           D
So he lays down with his lover
And silently he prays

[Chorus]
Ab                    Db
In his heart and soul
   Eb                           
He knew he was playin? a game he 
                Ab
could never win
But ya know, forbidden fruit is 
        Db
sweet
           Eb                      
Why it was sweet enough to make him
  Ab              Db
 risk it all again

             Eb
And now, he?s given up on lookin?
                              Db
for a way to fight the feelin?
      Eb
So he prays this simple pray
And hopes it makes its makes it past
 the motel ceilin?

[Chorus 2]
                      Db    Eb
Now I Lay Me Down To Cheat
                      Ab
On the woman I love so
                             Db    
And if I die between these sheets
 Eb

                             Ab
I pray to God she?ll never know
