Illicit Affairs Ukulele chords by Taylor Swift

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Verse 1:
C              Em
Make sure nobody sees you leave
                   Am
Hood over your head, keep your eyes down
                  G
Tell your friends you're out for a run
               C
You’ll be flushed when you return
              Em
Take the road less traveled by
               Am
Tell yourself you can always stop
             G
What started in beautiful rooms
               C
Ends with meetings in parking lots

Chorus:

And that's the thing about illicit affairs
   Em
And clandestine meetings and longing stares
   Am
It's born from just one single glance
    G
But it dies and it dies and it dies
 C
A million little times


Verse 2:
C             Em
Leave the perfume on the shelf
               Am
That you picked out just for him
            G
So you leave no trace behind
           C
Like you don’t even exist
               Em
Take the words for what they are
            Am
A dwindling, mercurial high
         G
A drug that only worked
            C
The first few hundred times

Chorus:

And that's the thing about illicit affairs
  Em
And clandestine meetings and stolen stares
   Am
They show their truth one single time
     G
But they lie and they lie and they lie
    C
A million little times


Verse 3:

And you wanna scream
C
Don't call me "kid," don't call me "baby"
Em
Look at this godforsaken mess that you made me
Am                       G
You showed me colors you know I can't see with anyone else
C
Don't call me "kid," don't call me "baby"
Em
Look at this idiotic fool that you made me
Am                         G
You taught me a secret language I can't speak with anyone else
    C     Am
And you know damn well
         Em   G
For you, I would ruin myself
   C
A million little times
