E A E
My woman thinks I wouldn't cheat on her when we're apart
A E B
But there's a secret hidden in the shadows of my heart
E A
The truth is catching up with me and it's hard to hide my shame
A E B E
What she don't know won't hurt her but it's drivin' me insane
A B E
My mind can't take my body runnin' 'round anymore
A E B
That guilty feelin's waitin' for me right outside my door
E A
So let's just call it off tonight and let my conscience be
A E B E
What she don't know won't hurt her but it's destroyin' me
It bothers me every time I hear the doorbell ring
That someone might be droppin' by to tell her everything
I stay upset 'cause I don't know if anybody sees
What she don't know won't hurt her but it's destroyin' me
Chorus
What she don't know won't hurt her but, Lord, it's killin' me
