Every Word Was A Piece Of My Heart

	  		           D              G
I've been staring at the page 
          D          G
For what seems like days 
   D                    A          D
I guess I put this one  off for a while 
                                 G
Did I see a tear fall from your  eyes 
            D                      G
Or did you laugh so hard that you cried 
        D                      A              D
When I served my secrets on a silver tray to you 

Em                   G
Hey now I guess the night's just bringing me down 
            D                G
There's no love, there's no hate 
             D                G
I left them there for you to take 
              D                 A           D 
But know that every word was a piece of my heart 

                 D            G
You've been the  blood in my veins 
                  D               G
The only one who knows my middle name 
         D                A              D
And the smiles, they came easy cause of you 
                                G
You know that I love you but I hate you 
         D                 G
Cause I know I could never escape you 
            D              A                   D 
So let the choir sing for tonight I'm an easy mark 
Em            G 
Hey now, am I acting just a little too proud? 
            D                G
There's no love, there's no hate 
             D                G
I left them there for you to take 
              D                 A           D
But know that every word was a piece of my heart 
                 G
Have I said too much 
         D            G 
Maybe I haven't said enough 
               D                 A           D
But know that  every word was a piece of my heart 

A                            G       D 
Hush me darling, maybe I've lost my touch 
                    A
Maybe I've lost my guts
                     G 
There is that truth enough
Em       G  
Hey now Hey now 
solo
                D                     G
You know these love letters mix with whisky
            D                      G
Just don't light a match when you kiss me
       D               A                     D
Though I'll blow away,you know I'll be back soon
          Em               G
Hey now, Hey now, Hey now, am I talking just a little too loud ?
