The Girl on the Side
INTRO: F G C
C Am
I cry every night for my family
F G
But they don't know what I'm cryin' for
C Am
The tears hold the darkness that surrounds
F G
Each night when I walk out the door
C Am
The night shift they think helps support them
F G
Is nothin' but a cowardly lie
C Am
'Cause just like a lot of other weak men
F G C
I've got a girl on the side
CHORUS:
C
She said I will never release you
F G
I will never let you go
C
Your wife doesn't have to be blue
F G C
Don't cross me and she'll never know
My kids think of me as a hero
My wife sees a man proud and strong
But I know I'm less than zero
I've been livin' this secret life so long
And I made the bed that I lie in
I've caused every tear that I've cried
I'm at the mercy of my sin
And the threats of the girl on the side
CHORUS
SOLO (chorus chords)
CHORUS 2:
She said I will never release you
I will never let you go
I will never release you
If you try to run the whole world will know
F G C
If you try to run the whole world will know
