Intro: G 


       G                          C 
Is it cheating if I call you sweetheart? 
       D            Am         G 
Is it cheating if you call me your man? 
                                        C 
I’m retrieving wayward glances with my wandering eye, 
        D           Am           G 
And pretending not to know you’re there. 


                              C 
I imagine the sound of your voice 
    D       Am            G 
I imagine the smell of your skin 
                             C     
I imagine me with you, the way that he is 
      D         Am           G 
And wonder how it would have been 



                                 C 
In the morning the tears on my pillow 
      D         Am       G 
Will dry in the sun in my room 
                                     C 
And they’ll go off to heaven, but I’ll stay down here 
          D         Am            G 
Far from you as the Earth and the moon 


                                 C 
Is it cheating if I call you sweetheart? 
        D              Am          G 
Is it cheating if you call me your man? 
                                        C 
I’m retrieving wayward glances with my wandering eye, 
        D              Am        G 
And pretending not to know you’re there. 




                           C 
Many years go by while we keep blinking eyes 
         D          Am       G 
Making promises and keeping a few 

I try to call, I try to write 
           C                        D          Am            G 
But that one single night was the one night I could have had you 



C    Bm            G 
Come dance beside me  
            C           Bm      G 
Grab your partner and I’ll grab mine 
C         Bm            G      Em   
Hold him close in your sweet arms 
     Am                   D 
And think of me darling tonight 



           G                       C 
With this ring on my finger I was promised away 
           D          Am           G 
With this ring I was chained to a cell 
                                   C 
So I sing of a sweetheart gone so many yesterdays 
      D                Am       G 
So I sing through this singular hell. 



                              C 
Is it cheating if I call you sweetheart? 
        D             Am          G 
Is it cheating if you call me your man? 
                                        C 
I’m retrieving wayward glances with my wandering eye, 
        D              Am        G 
And pretending not to know you’re there. 

                                            C 
Yeah I’m retrieving wayward glances with my wandering eye, 
     D                C         G 
And pretending not to know you care
