AFTER A WOMAN CHEATS

WORDS & MUSIC:   Earl P. Reinhalter


        INTRO:    Am


                  Am
             I.   after a woman cheats,
			    G
                  no matter how many times
		      F
                  you wash the sheets,
				    Dm
                  they'll never be clean.


                      Am
            II.   the air contains his breath,
                  G
                  even the garden
                  F
                  smells of death
                                    Dm         Am
                  and will never be green.


  INSTRUMENTAL:   Em - D - C - Em     (similar to verse but in Em)


                      Am
           III.   the loving that we make,
                     G
                  it all feels like
                    F
                  a second take
                                   Dm
                  in a second-rate show.


                      Am
            IV.   and every word we say,
                        G
                  these walls have heard
                       F
                  on another day,
                                  Dm        Am
                  like an old radio.



  INSTRUMENTAL:   Em - D - C - Em     (similar to verse but in Em)


                       D
      BRIDGE A:   I'll start a conversation
                       C               G
                  with pictures on the wall.
                  C           Em
                  anything is better
                       G             Dm
                  than seeing what I saw.


                    Am
             V.   I lie awake at night,
                  G
                  more alone
                           F
                  with you by my side
                                    Dm         Am
                  than when you're away.


                  D
      BRIDGE B:   three of us together
                     C             G
                  is one of us too many.
                  C	       Em
                  once I had a future,
                      G                Dm
                  but now I don't have any.


                  Am
        ENDING:   after a woman,

                  after a woman,

                  after a woman cheats.
