Affairs Of The Heart by Emerson Lake And Palmer


 



                          Affairs Of The Heart








Tuning:              EADGBE (Standard)

Comments:            Again a .CRD file, again a simple transcription
                     (... beg your pardon, Greg ...). Again I have tried
                     to preserve the timing for the chord changes.
                     Chords used here:    Emaj       022100
                                          Esus4      022200
                                          B       224442
                                          Em9       022000
                                          F#min      244222
                                          G       320003
                                          A       x02220
                                          Bm9       x24432
                     Other chords shapes may be used instead. Listen to 
                     the original song to find the bits and pieces.
                     And a 12string guitar is the best guitar for this song.
                     






*** Intro:

E  Esus4  E  Esus4

*** Main theme:

    E
She looked at me across the room

 Esus4
Emerging from a silk cocoon

 E                        Esus4
Alone beneath Venetian chandeliers

 E                      
Against the moon her body rocks

    Esus4
Her eyes were cunning like a fox

    E                            Esus4
The wings of passion fly on all frontiers

*** Refrain:

B                        E
>From this fire there's no returning

A
No escape your heart is burning

B                  E
Love becomes a lethal weapon

A
No one is too smart

                  E ... Esus4
In affairs of the heart ...

                  E ... Esus4
In affairs of the heart

*** Main theme:

E
Now upon the bridge she waits

Esus4
Dreaming of our tangled fates

    E                               Esus4
Her face was like a ghost with eyes of jade

    E
(I) fell just like a falling star

  Esus4
A victim of this coup d'etat

  E                            Esus4
I could not see behind this masquerade

*** Refrain:

B                        E
>From this fire there's no returning 

A
No escape your heart is burning

B                  E
Love becomes a lethal weapon

     A
(Be) careful where you start

                  E ... Esus4 
In affairs of the heart ...

                  E ... Esus4
In affairs of the heart ...

                  Em9 ... F#min ... G
In affairs of the heart

            A             Em9 ... F#min ... G
Sometimes I think I'll never learn

               A          Em9 ... F#min ... G 
Were all those promises in vain

                A       Bm9  ... A
Do the wings of fire still remain

... E ... Esus4 ... E ... Esus4

*** Main theme:

E
All is fair in love and war

    Esus4
The tender draw the shortest straw

     E                             Esus4
Like autumn leaves they vanish in the air

   E
Is this the time we say goodbye

  Esus4
I call her room there's no reply

  E                            Esus4
Tonight we end this fleeting love affair

*** Refrain:

B                        E
>From this fire there's no returning

A
No escape your heart is burning

B                  E
Love becomes a lethal weapon

A
Sharper than a dart

                  E ... Esus4
In affairs of the heart ...

                  E ... Esus4
In affairs of the heart

              E ... Esus4
In affairs of the heart ...

... E ... Esus4

              E ... Esus4
In affairs of the heart ...

(fade out) ... E ... Esus4 ... E ... Esus4.

She looked at me across the room
Emerging from a silk cocoon
Alone beneath Venetian chandeliers
Against the moon her body rocks
Her eyes were cunning like a fox
The wings of passion fly on all frontiers

From this fire there's no returning
No escape your heart is burning
Love becomes a lethal weapon
No one is too smart
In affairs of the heart

Now upon the bridge she waits
Dreaming of our tangled fates
Her face was like a ghost with eyes of jade
I fell just like a falling star
A victim of this coup d'etat
I could not see behind this masquerade

Be careful where you start
In affairs of the heart

Sometimes I think I'll never learn
Were all those promises in vain
Do the wings of fire still remain

All is fair in love and war
The tender draw the shortest straw
Like autumn leaves they vanish in the air
Is this the time we say goodbye
I call her room there's no reply
Tonight we end this fleeting love affair

From this fire there's no returning
No escape your heart is burning
Love becomes a lethal weapon
Sharper than a dart
In affairs of the heart
