Tonart: G major
Verse 1
G
C
Now I lay me down to cheat
D
G
On the woman I love so
Am
And if I die between these sheets
D
G
I pray to God she'll never know
Gm
Am
She's the best thing in his life,
G
the ground he walks on.
Gm
Am
She waits up for him at night and worries,
D
G
Am
until he's safely home.
She always believes his stories
Bm
about working overtime,
Am
and in twenty years beside him,
D
G
Cheating's never crossed her mind.
Am
D
G
Ah, but it crossed his early last summer.
In the person of a neighbor,
Am
D
she still calls her friend.
from drinking one too many,
one night in the fall, he gave in.
Bm
he wishes he could stop himself,
Am
but there's no easy way.
D
So he lays down with his lover,
and silently he prays.
C
Now I lay me down to cheat
D
G
On the woman I love so
Am
If I die between these sheets
D
G
Eb
Ab
I pray to God she'll never know
In his heart and soul,
Bbm
Eb
he knew that he was playing a
Ab
Abm
game he could never win.
Bbm
forbidden fruit is sweet.
Eb
Why it was sweet enough
Ab
Bbm
to make him risk it all again
Cm
And now he's given up on looking
for a way to fight the feeling
Bbm
So he prays this simple prayer
it past the motel ceiling
Db
Now I lay me down to cheat
Eb
Ab
On the woman I love so
Bbm
And if I die between these sheets
Eb
Ab
I pray to God you'll never know you
