Cheater's Road

• C

INTRO: C F  C F G    C F   C F G      
 
C 
Down a dirt road down in southern Lousiana 
                                   F  F    F 
Flew a white Continental with the top laid back 
C 
Pretty blonde sittin' on the seat of red leather 
                          F    F     F           G G    C 
Dust blowin' out of those well-worn tracks she's goin' back 
 
 
Moss hangin' down like beards in the bayou 
Old folks watchin' from their rockin' chairs 
Ain't no place for a girl of her station 
Gonna ruin her reputation but she don't care 'cause he's waitin there 
She's gonna say 
 
F             C 
Tell me you think that I'm pretty 
F            C 
Tell me you think that I'm smart 
F            C                                  G                C 
Tell me anything and I'll believe it 'cause I'm listenin with my heart 
Bb                               G 
Maybe it's wrong but that's the way it goes 
         F                         C 
When the only love you get is down Cheater's Road 
 
INTRO 
 
Bed springs rubbin' her back through the blanket 
Sweat like a tear rollin' down her neck 
Watchin' him pullin' down the shades on the window 
She'd rather have him than an empty bed and her self respect 
And she says 
 
CHORUS    
 
SOLO 
 
(muted chords) 
Old man countin' his money in the city 
Nothin' but the bottom dollar on his mind 
The whole situation is a downright pity 
He didn't even notice when she crossed that line when she crossed that line 
When she said 
 
CHORUS 
 
INTRO 
 
Down Cheater's Road 
 
   
   C             F                     C  F  G   
Oh tell me you think that I'm pretty 
     C          F                       C  F   G 
Oh tell me you think that I'm smart 
 
REPEAT and fade
