Illicit Affairs chords by Taylor Swift (Ver. 5)

Intro: G Em7 C9 Bm/A D

VERSE 1:

G              Em7
 Make sure nobody sees you leave
                   C9
Hood over your head, keep your eyes down
                  Bm/A
Tell your friends you're out for a run
      D
You’ll be flushed when you return
G               Em7
 Take the road less traveled by
                C9
Tell yourself you can always stop
              D
What started in beautiful rooms

Ends with meetings in parking lots


CHORUS:

Bm                C9
  And that's the thing about illicit affairs
   D
And clandestine meetings and longing stares
   Bm         C9
It's born from just one single glance
    D
But it dies and it dies and it dies
  G
A million little times


VERSE 2:

G              Em7
 Leave the perfume on the shelf
               C9
That you picked out just for him
             Bm/A
So you leave no trace behind
     D
Like you don’t even exist
G               Em7
 Take the words for what they are
            C9
A dwindling, mercurial high
          D
A drug that only worked

The first few hundred times


CHORUS:

Bm                C9
  And that's the thing about illicit affairs
   D
And clandestine meetings and longing stares
    Bm         C9
They show their truth one single time
     D
But they lie and they lie and they lie
  G
A million little times


BRIDGE:

And you wanna scream
 G
Don't call me kid, don't call me baby
 Em7
Look at this godforsaken

Mess that you made me
 C9
You showed me colors you know
         D
I can't see with anyone else
 G
Don't call me kid, don't call me baby
 Em7
Look at this idiotic fool that you made me
 C9
You taught me a secret language
          D
I can't speak with anyone else

     Bm Bm/A C9
And you know damn well
         D
For you, I would ruin myself
  G
