Keith Whitley - Once A Week Cheaters

[Intro]
A A7 D Bm7
E7 E7 E7 A E7

[Verse 1]
A Bbdim7 Bm7
My neighbors all think I’m a regular guy
E7 A E7
I go to work early and get home by 5
A Bbdim7 Bm7
My bills are all paid long before they come due
E7 A E7
It will sure shock them all if anyone knew

[Verse 2]
A Bbdim7 Bm7
We meet every Wednesday at a quarter ‘til 8
E 7 A E7
At places our friends wouldn’t go
A Bbdim7 Bm7
If anyone asks us we’ve been working late
E7 A E7
But we share a secret that they’ll never know

[Chorus]
A A7 D Bm7
We’re dancin’ with danger each time we meet
E7 A E7
In smoky old barrooms one night a week
A A7 D Bm7
And there for a moment we dance and pretend
E7 A E7
‘Til once a week cheaters go back home again

[Instrumental]
A A7 D Bm7
E7 E7 E7 A E7

[Verse 3]
A Bbdim7 Bm7
It’s Saturday night and I can’t even phone
E7 A E7
Cause I look out the back door and see she’s at home
A Bbdim7 Bm7
And tomorrow if we chance to meet on the street
E7 A E7
No one could guess what we do once a week

[Chorus]
A A7 D Bm7
We’re dancin’ with danger each time we meet
E7 A E7
In smoky old barrooms one night a week
A A7 D Bm7
And there for a moment we dance and pretend
E7 A E7
‘Til once a week cheaters go back home again
A A7 D Bm7
And there for a moment we dance and pretend
E7 A E7 A
‘Til once a week cheaters go back home again
