Illicit Affairs chords by Taylor Swift (Ver. 2)

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
A F#m D E

Verse 1:
A              F#m
Make sure nobody sees you leave
                  D
Hood over your head, keep your eyes down
                 C#m
Tell your friends you're out for a run
     E
You’ll be flushed when you return
A             F#m
Take the road less traveled by
               D
Tell yourself you can always stop
             C#m
What started in beautiful rooms
     E
Ends with meetings in parking lots

Chorus:
C#m            D
And that's the thing about illicit affairs
  E            A
And clandestine meetings and longing stares
   C#m        D
It's born from just one single glance
    E
But it dies and it dies and it dies
 A
A million little times


Verse 2:
A            F#m
Leave the perfume on the shelf
               D
That you picked out just for him
            C#m
So you leave no trace behind
     E
Like you don’t even exist
A              F#m
Take the words for what they are
            D
A dwindling, mercurial high
         C#m
A drug that only worked
  E
The first few hundred times


Chorus:
C#m            D
And that's the thing about illicit affairs
  E            A
And clandestine meetings and stolen stares
   C#m        D
They show their truth one single time
    E
But they lie and they lie and they lie
 A
A million little times


Verse 3:
          A
And you wanna scream
A
Don't call me "kid," don't call me "baby"
F#m
Look at this godforsaken mess that you made me
D            C#m          E
You showed me colors you know I can't see with anyone else
A
Don't call me "kid," don't call me "baby"
F#m
Look at this idiotic fool that you made me
D           C#m             E
You taught me a secret language I can't speak with anyone else
    F#m A  D
And you know damn well
         E
For you, I would ruin myself
A
A million little times
