Verse 1

A
Cheat'n is a thing that starts when 
you bring two lonely
                           A7      
people face to face with a brand 
  D     E
new kiss. She blames him and

he blames her and neither one is 
really quite sure which
E7     A    D
way it is. And all of the time in 
the back of their mind
they know they're gonna have to lie 
      E          A
about where they been.
Cheat'n is a thing that takes a 
                E
little ring and breaks it
into pieces that'll never go 
         A      E
together again.

A
Cheat'n is a part of love in the 
start when true love isn't
     A7                D    
what lovers are look'n for. A 
  E
stranger here, a stranger there
You swear every time that you'll 
         E7       A
never go back for more.
    D
And lying at night when you're 
hold'n them tight, there's
something that a cheaters heart is 
E         A
bound to learn.
Cheat'n is a thing that's guaranteed
             E
 to bring two unhappy
                       E7 A
people to the point of no return.

Verse 3

        D
And the worse that cheat'n gets is 
sad little kids hanging
                              E    
in the middle while mommy and daddy
 A
 choose.
Cheat'n is a game where nobody wins 
        E
and the ones that aren't
big enough to play are the ones who 
A
loose.
