Intro: G C G C
The G glasses were all plastic;
Little C bars of no-name soap;
No D cable on the TV;
The C ice-machine was br{G}oke.
Well, I guess that's what you get,
For nineteen C bucks an' some change.
But the D cheapest motel in town,
C Cost him every{G}thing C
They used the Bible for a coaster,
An' it never crossed their mind:
Maybe they should've opened it,
Instead of that high-dollar wine.
It was just their little secret,
A hideaway out West Main,
But the cheapest motel in town,
Cost him everything.
He went from Csus2 home in the suburbs,
To an apartment in town.
From bein' G met at the door by two little kids,
To a D stray dog he'd found.
He paid the Csus2 price for pleasure,
Now he G can't aff{G/F#}ord the Em pain.
An' the D cheapest motel in town, C
Cost him every{G}thing C G C
They thought no-one would find 'em,
But it isn't hard to spot,
A brand-new black Mercedes-Benz,
In that gravel parkin' lot.
He fooled his wife till one night,
She saw something he couldn't explain,
An' the cheapest motel in town,
Cost him everything.
Repeat Chorus
It cost him every{G}thing C G C
Cost him every{G}thing C G C
