Cheater's Road--Lonestar
written by Sellers/Rice
Corrections welcome.
INTRO: C F C F G C F C F G
[C]Down a dirt road down in southern Lousiana
Flew a white Continental with the t[F]op [F]laid [F]back
[C]Pretty blonde sittin' on the seat of red leather
Dust blowin' out of those [F]well-[F]worn t[F]racks she's [G]go[G]in' b[C]ack
Moss hangin' down like beards in the bayou
Old folks watchin' from their rockin' chairs
Ain't no place for a girl of her station
Gonna ruin her reputation but she don't care 'cause he's waitin there
She's gonna say
CHORUS:
[F]Tell me you th[C]ink that I'm pretty
[F]Tell me you t[C]hink that I'm smart
[F]Tell me anyth[C]ing and I'll believe it 'cause I'm [G]listenin with my [C]heart
[Bb]Maybe it's wrong but that's the w[G]ay it goes
When the [F]only love you get is down [C]Cheater's Road
INTRO
Bed springs rubbin' her back through the blanket
Sweat like a tear rollin' down her neck
Watchin' him pullin' down the shades on the window
She'd rather have him than an empty bed and her self respect
And she says
CHORUS
SOLO
(muted chords)
Old man countin' his money in the city
Nothin' but the bottom dollar on his mind
The whole situation is a downright pity
He didn't even notice when she crossed that line when she crossed that line
When she said
CHORUS
INTRO
Down Cheater's Road
Oh [C]tell me you th[F]ink that I'm pretty[C][F][G]
Oh te[C]ll me you t[F]hink that I'm smart[C][F][G]
REPEAT and fade
