Greg Lake/Geoff Downes: Affairs of the heart
From: Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Black Moon
Transcription by: Rainer Boettchers ([email protected]) Paderborn/Germany, July 1996
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 Bmaj 224442 Emin 022000 F#min 244222 Gmaj 320003 Amaj Bmin 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:
Emaj Esus4 Emaj Esus4
*** Main theme:
Emaj She looked at me across the room
Emerging from a silk cocoon
Emaj Esus4 Alone beneath Venetian chandeliers
Emaj Against the moon her body rocks
Her eyes were cunning like a fox
Emaj Esus4 The wings of passion fly on all frontiers
*** Refrain:
Bmaj Emaj >From this fire there's no returning
Amaj No escape your heart is burning
Bmaj Emaj Love becomes a lethal weapon
Amaj No one is too smart
Emaj ... Esus4 In affairs of the heart ...
Emaj ... Esus4 In affairs of the heart
*** Main theme:
Emaj Now upon the bridge she waits
Dreaming of our tangled fates
Emaj Esus4 Her face was like a ghost with eyes of jade
Emaj (I) fell just like a falling star
A victim of this coup d'etat
Emaj Esus4 I could not see behind this masquerade
*** Refrain:
Bmaj Emaj >From this fire there's no returning
Amaj No escape your heart is burning
Bmaj Emaj Love becomes a lethal weapon
Amaj (Be) careful where you start
Emaj ... Esus4 In affairs of the heart ...
Emaj ... Esus4 In affairs of the heart ...
Emin ... F#min ... Gmaj In affairs of the heart
Amaj Emin ... F#min ... Gmaj Sometimes I think I'll never learn
Amaj Emin ... F#min ... Gmaj Were all those promises in vain
Amaj Bmin ... Amaj Do the wings of fire still remain
... Emaj ... Esus4 ... Emaj ... Esus4
*** Main theme:
Emaj All is fair in love and war
The tender draw the shortest straw
Emaj Esus4 Like autumn leaves they vanish in the air
Emaj Is this the time we say goodbye
I call her room there's no reply
Emaj Esus4 Tonight we end this fleeting love affair
*** Refrain:
Bmaj Emaj >From this fire there's no returning
Amaj No escape your heart is burning
Bmaj Emaj Love becomes a lethal weapon
Amaj Sharper than a dart
Emaj ... Esus4 In affairs of the heart ...
Emaj ... Esus4 In affairs of the heart
Emaj ... Esus4 In affairs of the heart ...
... Emaj ... Esus4
Emaj ... Esus4 In affairs of the heart ...
(fade out) ... Emaj ... Esus4 ... Emaj ... Esus4.
