Verse 1:
E
Somewhere across town
There's a porch light
A
Turned on and burnin' bright
B7
But this pay-by-hour motel room
E
Just feels so right
And I know in the morning
A
When I'm drunked up and stumblin' home
B7
She'll welcome me with open arms
E
Like she don't know what's goin' on
Chorus:
E
Cheatin' again
A
Cheatin' again
B7
Honky tonks and cheap motels
E
I been playin' in
Well, this time won't be the last time
A
I'll be untrue to you
B7
Yeah, cheatin' is the only thing
E
You can count on me to do

Cheatin' again
