Title: Tears For Affairs        
Intro :  Am   D3x
         G
G Am D C G
Shedding tears for affairs
I’m a funny little thing
I can tell you this for nothing
Affairs don’t win
G Am D C G
Can you handle one more dirty secret one more dirty night
Is it true what they say
Will it make us go blind
Am D
G
You had to drive
Look me in the eye
Whisper don’t cry
G Am D C G
I’ll take an interest in Illustration
It should be a laugh
Your words are with me still
They whisper in the grass
G Am D C G
Shedding tears for affairs
I’m a stupid little thing
I can tell you this for nothing
You won’t win
Am D
G
You had to drive
(I didn’t want to)
Look me in the eye
(I found it hard to)
Whisper don’t cry
(I had to whisper don’t cry)
So I cried
Solo (slide&bend)
