Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][G][A][D][G]

[Verse 1]
When you [D]check
in the cheating hotel
[C]You'll be [G]back
[A]For another [Em]spin at the [A]wheel and
A race at the [D]track[G][Asus4][D]
They're off and running
down at the [C]bar
This is [G]Heather - This is John
They're all [A]down at the cheating
Hotel looking [D]for fun[G][D]
Yea I'm the bartender in here
And it's quite [G]a scene
The [A]wo men get dressed to kill
And slip off their [D]rings[G][D]
Their husbands meet
them an hour later
She'll have friend[G]s all around the table
And [A]introduce the old man as
One of her latest [D]flings[G]

[Verse 2]
Then they [G]go out on the dance floor
Now there's [D]a new man to sway for
And touch and talk and sip
some more [G]red [A]wine
Then [G]the slow dances get much closer
And [D]now's the time for low words
That guy there with your wife's
My husband but it's OK
[A]

[Verse 3]
Then I [D]watch all of them leave
[C]Then [G]they share a stare and a squeeze
[A]Now [D]I d[Em]on't [G]know
if it's wrong or right
I'm sure it [D]feels good at the time
But if you keep on playing this
Game you'll lose [A]your mind
'Cause they're think[D]ing
about him or [C]her
Then they [G]feel like a piece of dirt
It's time [A]to check out of the cheating
Hotel and go home for [D]good[A][G][A][D][Bb]
We get [Eb]quite a few attractive
[Db]lonely [Ab]wives
They come [Bb]in the bar
Together about six forty- [Eb]five[Ab]
And [Eb]sit down and say with their eyes
My friend [Ab]and I are looking
for a good time
It don't take [Bb]long to find a couple
Of guys at the cheating hotel
[Eb]

[Verse 4]
Then they [Ab]go out on the dance floor
Now there's [Eb]a new man to sway for
And touch and talk and sip
some more [Bb]red wine
Then [Ab]the slow dances get
much closer
[Eb]And now's the time for low words
That guy there with your wife's
My husband but it's [Ab]OK
[Bb]

[Verse 5]
And [Eb]they know it's really not
Look [Ab]at all the trouble they got
If you [Bb]check in the cheating [Fm]hotel
Some[Bb]body somewhere's
going to [Fm]tell
And you'll [Bb]be in the room from
Hell and you can't get [Eb]away
[Bb]The [Eb]light blinks on and off
Bar[Ab]tender last round for us all
Oh they [Bb]had a mighty hard fall
Down here at the cheating hotel
[Eb][Fm][Eb]
