Intro: F#m  E  D  Bm  C# (twice)
 
F#m
Secret calls long after hours
   G#
Suspicions rise, why does she whisper
 Bm
Someone's hiding something
F#m
What's going on

She smiles and finds an excuse to go out
 G#
Meets him somewhere on the edge of town
    Bm
For one more night of real love
F#m            C#
How can it be wrong

                  D            F#m
'Cause when they turn out the lights
          E
In their rented room tonight
     C#                        B   A  G#  C#
Two lovers won't be lonely anymore

F#m
When it's a desperate love, risk is high
                          D   C#
Cheating hearts making alibis
         F#m
In the shadows someone is waiting
                            D      C#
Waiting for their lover to come tonight

    F#m
A cheater's conscience has no pride

To spend the night with another man's wife
 Bm                   F#m

He knows where to find what he longs to have
    G#
And do anything 'cause he wants her that bad
 Bm                 F#m        C#
Love has many faces, faces to hide

                  D            F#m
'Cause when they turn out the lights
          E
In their rented room tonight
