A Hard Secret To Keep chords by Mark Chesnutt

Bm                             G
I stay up late and read a lot at night
A                            Bm
Lately she's begun to wonder why
                                          Em
She don't know I'm scared that I'll start talkin' in my sleep
         A              Bm
You're A Hard Secret To Keep.

Bm                            G
Every time she asks were I've been
  A                     Bm
A cheater's paranoida begins
                            Em
Scrabblin' for an answer anything she might believe
         A              Bm
You're A Hard Secret To Keep.

Chorus:
G               A                    Bm
One slip of the tounges all it would take
Em                          F#m
Just one little note that I forgot to throw away
    Bm                             Em
The slightest trace of makeup on a shirt that won't come clean
         A              Bm
You're A Hard Secret To Keep.

G A Bm

Bm                                G
I never meant for you to touch my heart
A                                  Bm
Never meant to take one night this far
                                Em
How much longer can I live this double life I lead
         A              Bm
You're A Hard Secret To Keep.

Chorus:

                                     Bm
One slip of the tounges all it would take
Em                          F#m
Just one little note that I forgot to throw away
    Bm                             Em
The slightest trace of makeup on a shirt that won't come clean
         A              Bm
You're A Hard Secret To Keep.

  Bm                            Em
I wonder if she feels you every time she touches me
         A              Bm
You're A Hard Secret To Keep.
