G There's no need to lie G7 C Without me half trying I could love you A7 It shows in your eyes D7 You feel the same way I do G But wherever I go my conscience goes C Em A7 What more can I say G D7 It's only desire not yet a fire G Let's keep it that way D7 G C G Cause I don't want to have to tell him a lie C When I get back home G C G Cause it would tear apart his fairy tale world C If I did him wrong G And lying to him would hurt me more C Em A7 Than leaving you this way G D7 So before we forget we're not cheaters yet G Let's keep it that way Let's finish this wine C Cause I'm not thinking too clearly tonight A7 The touch of your hand D7 Makes it so hard for me to tell wrong from right G He waits at home he's there alone C Em A7 And though I'd like to stay G D7 Before I give in let's call it just friends G And keep it that way D7 G C G Cause I don't want to have to tell him a lie C When I get back home G C G Cause it would tear apart his fairy tale world C If I did him wrong G And lying to him would hurt me more C Em A7 Than leaving you this way G D7 So before we forget we're not cheaters yet G Let's keep it that way
