----------------------------------------------------------------------------
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
