Intro l E7 l A7 l E7 l E7 l
She said it wasn't cheatin’ coz she did it with her best friend
She said it wasn't cheatin’ coz she did it with her best friend
That's why she didn't tell me coz it didn't happen with a man.

Chorus – Tempo Change (89 bpm)
I woke up this morning with my heart down in my shoes
I woke up this morning with my heart down in my shoes
Feeling low and heartbroken with the down and out Cheatin’ Blues

Well I tried to make it work but that picture stayed in my mind
Yes I tried to make it work but that picture stayed in my mind
As soon as things get better that image ruins my good time.
Chorus
Interlude – Once over 12 Bars

I took up with a new woman, she was gorgeous and seemed so true
I took up with a new woman, she was gorgeous and seemed so true
What I can’t understand is why I'm stuck between the two.
Chorus
