Cheap Affairs

	  		 


Intro: Bm G D A 

Bm 
Dirty hotel laundry rooms 
G                         D 
Old apartments, basic views 
                              A 
We are the kings, we are the kings 
Bm 
Never sleep and barely eat 
G 
We can hardly catch a dream 
D                              A  
But it's better then that 9 to 5 

Bm                   G 
     No more cheap affairs 
                 D 
No more sideways stares 
       A                             Bm 
When I tell you where I've been last night 
                G 
No more cryptic notes 
                D 
Of when I'll be home 
     A                       G 
You know you're better off alone 

          A 
I hate to tell you this 
Bm 
Over the phone 
          G            A 
There was portland and columbus 
       Bm 
That's twice in a year 
G                       D 
Baby I'm a mess and you know 
               A 
I'm out of control 
            Bm    
I'm feeling crazy when I'm all alone 
G                      D 
The kind of crazy that makes you start shaking 
A                            Bm  
Saying things that you never say 
G       D                A 
Maybe I thought we had a shot 
          Bm                         G 
We'd get lost and burn up all of the maps 
A 
And watch the world fall away 

Bm - G - D - A 

Bm 
Seven hundred "I owe you"s 
G                        D 
Holidays and birthdays too 
                                        A 
I've missed them all, I've missed them all 
Bm 
Failed attempts at randev? 
G 
This is just a dying cause 
D                                A  
But we talked it out and made a truth 

Bm                   G 
     No more cheap affairs 
                 D 
No more sideways stares 
       A                             Bm 
When I tell you where I've been last night 
                G 
No more cryptic notes 
                D 
Of when I'll be home 
     A                       G 
You know you're better off alone 

          A

       Bm

            Bm

The kind of crazy that makes you start shaking 
A                            Bm

          Bm                         G

A 
And watch the world fall away 

G                           D 
Judging by the look on your face 

You don't get it 
     A                       Bm 
Like every word I said was abandoned grace 
G                           D 
Staring at me like you're amazed 
                  A                  Bm         G   A 
My bad habits are holding me up and away from you 

G                       D 
Baby I'm a mess and you know 
               A 
I'm out of control 
            Bm    
I'm feeling crazy when I'm all alone 
G                      D 
The kind of crazy that makes you start shaking 
A                            Bm  
Saying things that you never say 
G       D                A 
Maybe I thought we had a shot 
          Bm                         G 
We'd get lost and burn up all of the maps 
A                           
And watch the world fall away
