Intro:  G A Bm G D A D (A Three Count For Each Chord) 

D 
He drives to Charlotte, every third Monday,  
                      A          D 
And checks into the Twelve Oaks Motel. 

He calls it business, and he calls the number  
               A             D 
Of a woman he knows all too well. 

  G                          D 
Every third Monday when his wife packs his suitcase,  
A                             D 
He looks her straight in the eye. 
  G           A    D           G 
Every third Monday he finds a new way  
    D             A       D 
To tell her that same old lie.

D# 
Back home in Atlanta, in a cafe for lovers,  
                   Bb           D# 
She slips off her gold wedding ring. 

To a stranger in a back booth, she whispers I'd love to. 
                      Bb           D#  
Two can play at this old cheatin' game.
