If A Heart Could Tell Cifras

If A Heart Could Tell (Nudie and the Turks)
intro: C F C G C
      C
If a heart could tell the difference 
            F                           C
between a heart that was brand new, and one that had been around,
            G
the other battered, broken, and bruised.
        C                        F
Then a heart would surely run, before it took a chance and fell
                    C      G           C      C
but it can’t so it will, a heart can’t tell.
 
      C
If an ear could hear the difference, between
F                                 C
lips that were tellin’ lies, and lips that told it straight
                  G
There would be a lot less people crying.
        C                         F
Then a mark surely turn and run, before he let the slips get near.
                   C               G                  C
We believe what we want- to —   because an ear can’t hear.
 
chorus:
      G                           C
If a heart could tell, - - and an ear could hear.
                     D                                 G       G
That would take away all of the fun, we would surely disappear.
 
              C
They say the heart is the muscle of love.
             F                    C
It’s got to work hard every day, build it up; tear it down,
             G
though it’s stronger for the pain.
       C                              F
If we merely played it safe, we could tell it what to do.
                          C       G                          C
Then a heart would be a stone, there would be no more me and you.
