Illicit Affairs chords by Taylor Swift

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
Bb  Gm  Eb  D F

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

Chorus:
D                            Eb
 And that's the thing about illicit affairs
    F
And clandestine meetings and longing stares
     Bb                 Eb
It's born from just one single glance
       F
But it dies and it dies and it dies
   Bb
A million little times


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


Chorus:
Bb                           Eb
 And that's the thing about illicit affairs
    F
And clandestine meetings and  stolen stares
     Bb                   Eb
They show their truth one single time
         F
But they lie and they lie and they lie
   Bb
A million little times


Verse 3:

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