Аккорды David Allan Coe - Now I Lay Me Down to Cheat

[Chorus]
N.C.                  C
Now I lay me down to cheat
D                      G
   On the woman I love so
                          Am
And if I die between these sheets
D                             G     Cadd9 G
   I pray to God she'll never know

[Verse 1]
G                              Am
   She's the best thing in his life
D                          G
   Why, she worships the ground that he walks on
G                                         Am
   She waits up for him at night and worries
D                    G
   Until he's safely home
Am                                       Bm
   And she always believes his stories about working overtime
Am                               D                           D7
   And in 20 years beside him, cheating's never crossed her mind

[Verse 2]
G  Am         D
   ...ah, but it crossed his
G
   Early last summer
G
   In the person of a neighbor
                      Am   D
She still calls her friend
G
   And with a little push from drinking one too many
    G
One night in the fall, he gave in
Am         Bm                                            Am
   And now, he wishes he could stop himself, but there's no easy way
            D
So he lays down with his lover and silently he prays...

[Chorus]
                     C
Now I lay me down to cheat
D                      G
   On the woman I love so
                           Am
And if I die between these sheets
D                              G
   I pray to God she'll never know
Eb

[Verse 3]
Ab
   In his heart and soul
Bbm                 Eb                                Ab
   He knew that he was playing a game he could never win
                 Ab
But ya know, forbidden fruit is sweet
Bbm             Eb                       Ab
   Why, it was sweet enough to make him risk it all again
Bbm               Cm
   And now, he's given up on looking for a way to fight the feeling
Bbm
   So he prays this simple prayer
Eb
   And hopes it makes it past the motel ceiling

[Chorus 2]
                     Db
Now I lay me down to cheat
Eb                     Ab
   On the woman I love so
                           Bbm
And if I die between these sheets
Eb                            Ab   Db Ab
   I pray to God she'll never know
