G C
Is it cheating if I call you sweetheart?
D D7 G
Is it cheating if you call me your man?
C
I’m retrieving wayward glances with my wandering eye,
D D7 G
And pretending not to know you’re there.
C
I imagine the sound of your voice
D D7 G
I imagine the smell of your skin
C
I imagine me with you, the way that he is
D D7 G
And wonder how it would have been
C
In the morning the tears on my pillow
D D7 G
Will dry in the sun in my room
C
And they’ll go off to heaven, but I’ll stay down here
D D7 G
Far from you as the Earth and the moon
C
Is it cheating if I call you sweetheart?
D D7 G
Is it cheating if you call me your man?
C
I’m retrieving wayward glances with my wandering eye,
D D7 G
And pretending not to know you’re there.
C
Many years go by while we keep blinking eyes
D D7 G
Making promises and keeping a few
I try to call, I try to write
C D D7 G
But that one single night was the one night I could have had you
C Bm G
Come dance beside me
C Bm G
Grab your partner and I’ll grab mine
C Bm G Em
Hold him close in your sweet arms
D7 D
And think of me darling tonight
G C
With this ring on my finger I was promised away
D D7 G
With this ring I was chained to a cell
C
So I sing of a sweetheart gone so many yesterdays
D D7 G
So I sing through this singular hell.
C
Is it cheating if I call you sweetheart?
D D7 G
Is it cheating if you call me your man?
C
I’m retrieving wayward glances with my wandering eye,
D D7 G
And pretending not to know you’re there.
C
Yeah I’m retrieving wayward glances with my wandering eye,
D C G
And pretending not to know you care
