Every Word Was A Piece Of My Heart From the album "Destination Anywhere" (1997) By Jon Bon Jovi [email protected] [email protected]

This is the most Bon Jovi-sounding song on the record, wouldn't you agree. The basic rhythm figure continues through all the verses, bass implies Different harmonies to the two chords Dadd9 and Asus4/E. In the second verse The letters behind slashes (i.e. Dadd9/F#) are the bass notes, guitar plays Just Rhy.fig.1. The lyrics are a bit faulty, I'll fix them later. I hope you Get the idea. Enjoy, and e-mail me for any corrections or comments.

Rhy.fig.1

Did I see a tear fall from your eyes? [Dadd9 Asus4/E] Did you laugh so hard that you cried? [Dadd9/F# Asus4/G] When I serve my secrets on a silver tray(?)[Dadd9 Asus4/E Dadd9 Dadd9]
