WEBB PIERCE - BACK STREET AFFAIR guitar chord

Webb Pierce

Back Street Affair

VERSE 1:

You did-n't (F)know I (Gm7)was-(C7)n't (F)free

When you (Bb)fell in love with (F)me

And with all your young (C7)heart, you (Gm7)learned (C7)to (F)care

It brought you shame (Gm7)and (C7)dis-(F)grace

The world has (Bb)tum-bled (Gm7)in your (C7)face

Because they (F)call our love a (C7)back (Gm7)street (C7)af-(F)fair

VERSE 2:

They (F)say you (Gm7)wrecked (C7)my (F)home

I'm a (Bb)hus-band that's gone (F)wrong

They don't know the sor-row (C7)that, we (Gm7)had (C7)to (F)bear

For the one that (Gm7)I'm (C7)tied (F)to

Was the (Bb)first to (Gm7)be (C7)un-true

And yet they (F)call our love a (C7)back (Gm7)street (C7)af-(F)fair

VERSE 3:

We have each oth-er now

That's all that mat-ters an-y-how

For the judge-ment of gos-sip's nev-er fair

We'll just be brave and strong

Then some day they'll see they're wrong

Let 'em call our love a back street af-fair

VERSE 4:

We'll be free to love some-day

When all the talk has died a-way

And then the hap-pi-ness we hope for then we'll share

I'll climb a moun-tain high,

and then the world can hear me cry

That our love's not a back street af-fair
