[Intro]
 
(guitar 1 only):
 
A  Dadd9  A   Dadd9  A   Dadd9  A  Dadd9
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
A       D                A
 Take my picture off the wall
A         D                A
 It don't matter to me at all
           E
Said I was headed for a fall
        D            A
But you wanted me to call
 
 
A          D  A
 Give back my TV
         A        D        A
It don't mean that much to me
            E
While you're giving back my things
         D                  A
Give me back the key to my heart
 
 
[Chorus]
 
     A        D          A
Give back the key to my heart
     A        D          A
Give back the key to my heart
           E                D
And let my love flow like a river
                   A
Straight into your heart, dear
 
 
[Solo]
 
A Dadd9 A A A Dadd9 A A
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
A          D             A
 Well, you say I was the one
   A             D                 A
To blame for the wrong that's been done
          E
Well, you got a friend in cocaine
          D              A
And you believe he is to blame
 
 
       A            D         A
He has drained life from your face
       A D        A
He has taken that place
        E
You're alone in San Anton
 
 
[Chorus]
 
        D                  A
Give me back the key to my heart
     A        D         A
Give back the key to my heart
     A        D         A
Give back the key to my heart
           E                D
And let my love flow like a river
                   A
Straight into your heart, dear
 
 
[Outro]
