Verse:
The same as the intro but in the first part you hit only the first note of the
power chord
Chorus:
e|-------------------|
B|-------------------|
G|---6-\-9-----------| Than you continue with the second part of the verse
D|---6-\-9-----------| without playing the last E
A|---4-\-7-----------|
E|-------------------|
Bridge:
e|----------------------------------------------------|
B|----------------------------------------------------|
G|----------------------------------------------------|
D|----4---6-7---11----9-------7---4-------------------| (t’s the same
A|----4---6-7---11----9-------7---4-------------------| thing when
E|----2---4-5---9-----7-------5---2-------------------| solo starts)
You finish it with the end of the verse
Hanging from the cobwebs in you mind
It looks like a long, long way to fall
No one ever told me life was kind
I guess I never heard it, never heard it all
Living in a world of make believe
I can hide behind what's real
But wearing your emotions on your sleeve
And they all know what you feel
And here it comes again
Straight through the heart
Straight through the heart
Oh, never tell a secret with your eyes
It's the eyes that let you down
Tell a little truth with many lies
It's the only way I've found
Oh here it comes again
Straight through the heart
Straight through the heart
Shout to the wind
How can you hurt me this way
Oh once it begins
It looks like it's coming to stay
Hanging from the cobwebs in your mind
It looks like a long, long way to fall
No one ever told me life was kind
I Guess I never heard it, never heard it all, no!
But here it comes again
Straight through the heart
Straight through the heart
Straight through the heart
Here it comes again
Straight through the heart
In the middle of the heart
Now don't stand still, they'll get you
Right through your heart
And here it comes, here it comes again
Straight through the heart

Hanging from the cobwebs in you mind
It looks like a long, long way to fall
No one ever told me life was kind
I guess I never heard it, never heard it all
Living in a world of make believe
I can hide behind what's real
But wearing your emotions on your sleeve
And they all know what you feel
And here it comes again
Straight through the heart
Straight through the heart
Oh, never tell a secret with your eyes
It's the eyes that let you down
Tell a little truth with many lies
It's the only way I've found
Oh here it comes again
Straight through the heart
Straight through the heart
Shout to the wind
How can you hurt me this way
Oh once it begins
It looks like it's coming to stay
Hanging from the cobwebs in your mind
It looks like a long, long way to fall
No one ever told me life was kind
I Guess I never heard it, never heard it all, no!
But here it comes again
Straight through the heart
Straight through the heart
Straight through the heart
Here it comes again
Straight through the heart
In the middle of the heart
Now don't stand still, they'll get you
Right through your heart
And here it comes, here it comes again
Straight through the heart
