---------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's a Cheating Situation - John Prine ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuning: Standard Artist: John Prine Album: In Spite Of Ourselves Year: 1999 Intro: It's a cheating situa-tion A stealing invitation To take what's not really ours To make it through the midnight hours It's a cheating situa-tion Just a cheap imitation Doing what we have to do When there's no love at home There's no use in pretending There'll be a happy ending Where our love's concerned Sweetheart, we both know We'll take love where we find it Love and try to hide it It's all we got For we know they're not Gonna let us go It's a cheating situa-tion A stealing invitation To take what's not really ours To make it through the midnight hours It's a cheating situa-tion Just a cheap imitation Doing what we have to do When there's no love at home It's a cheating situ-ation When there's no love at home
