Illicit Affairs by Taylor Swift

Capo on 3rd fret


[Intro] 
      (with Thumb)

[Verse 1]

Make sure nobo

dy sees you le

ave

Hood over your

 head, keep yo

ur eyes down

Tell your frie

nds you're out

 for a run
           
You’ll be flus

  
hed when you r

eturn

Take the road 

less traveled 

by

Tell yourself 

you can always

 stop

What started i

n beautiful ro

oms
          
Ends with meet

ings in parkin

g lots

[Chorus]
             
And that's the

              
 thing about i

 
llicit affairs
           
And clandestin

              
e meetings and

 
 longing stare

s
           
It's born from

          
 just one sing


le glance
             
But it dies an

              
d it dies and 

    
it dies
     
A million litt

le times

[Verse 2]

Leave the perf

ume on the she

lf

That you picke

d out just for

 him

So you leave n

o trace behind
           
Like you don’t

 
 even exist

Take the words

 for what they

 are

A dwindling, m

ercurial high
         
A drug that on

   
ly worked

The first few 

hundred times

[Chorus]
             
And that's the

              
 thing about i

 
llicit affairs
           
And clandestin

              
e meetings and

 
 stolen stares
           
They show thei

            
r truth one si


ngle time 
             
But they lie a

              
nd they lie an

        
d they lie
     
A million litt

le times

[Bridge]

And you wanna 

scream

Don't call me 

"kid," don't c

all me "baby"

Look at this g

odforsaken mes

s that you mad

e me

You showed me 

colors you kno

w I can't see

with anyone el

se

Don't call me 

"kid," don't c

all me "baby"

Look at this i

diotic fool th

at you made me

You taught me 

a secret langu

age I can't sp

eak

with anyone el

se

[Outro]
         
And you know d

  
amn well
              
For you, I wou

      
ld ruin myself
     
A million litt

le times
