Commercial Affection
Written and recorded by Mel Tillis
[3/4 time]

C                        D7
I was lonely I guess the night that we met
     F              G7       C
In a tavern down on old Broadway
G7             C
And there were tears in her eyes
        D7
And she whispered a sigh
F               G7             C
Stranger please take me out of here

                     C7      F
But it was only commercial affection
        G7                      C
Cause a fool and his money will part
                    C7       F
Yes it was only commercial affection
    G7                      C
But she walked away with my heart

                            D7
I stood in disbelief as she hurried off to meet
F                 G7      C
Another fool down on Broadway
G7       C
Now many nights have come and gone
          D7
Still the echo lingers on
F               G7             C
Stranger please take me out of here
