Your cheat in’ (C)heart will make you (F)weep. You’ll cry (Ab7)and (G7)cry and try to (C)sleep. But (G7)sleep won’t (C)come the whole night (F)through. Your cheat (Ab7)in’ (G7)heart will tell on (C)you. (C7)When tears come (F)down like fall in’ (C)rain, you’ll toss a (D7)round and call my (G7)name. You’ll walk the (C)floor the way I (F)do. Your cheat (Ab7)in’ (G7)heart will tell on (C)you. Your (G7)cheat in’ (C)heart will pine some (F)day and crave (Ab7)the (G7)love you threw a (C)way. The (G7)time will (C)come when you’ll be (F)blue. Your cheat (Ab7)in’ (G7)heart will tell on (C)you. (C7)When tears come (F)down like fall in’ (C)rain, you’ll toss a (D7)round and call my (G7)name. You’ll walk the (C)floor the way I (F)do. Your cheat (Ab7)in’ (G7)heart will tell on (C)you. Your (G7)cheat in’ (C)you.
