[Verse 1]
       Dm
I was always working steady
       Bb
But I never called it art
 Bb/G
I got my shit together
          A7
Meeting Christ and reading Marx
     Dm
It failed my little fire
          Bb
But it's bright, the dying spark
   Bb/G
Go tell the young messiah
 A7
What happens to the heart

[Verse 2]
          Dm
There's a mist of summer kisses
         Bb
Where I tried to double-park
     Bb/G
The rivalry was vicious
     A7
The women were in charge
         Dm
It was nothing, it was business
        Bb
But it left an ugly mark
     Bb/G
I've come here to revisit
 A7
What happens to the heart

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
        Dm
I was selling holy trinkets
        Bb
I was dressing kind of sharp
       Bb/G
Had a pussy in the kitchen
        A7
And a panther in the yard
         Dm
In the prison of the gifted
        Bb
I was friendly with the guards
      Bb/G
So I never had to witness
A7                   Bb
What happens to the heart

[Interlude]

||: Bb/G  |  F  |  A7  ||

[Verse 4]
   Dm
I should have seen it coming
      Bb
After all I knew the chart
        Bb/G
Just to look at her was trouble
         A7
It was trouble from the start
         Dm
Sure we played a stunning couple
       Bb
But I never liked the part
          Bb/G
It ain't pretty, it ain't subtle
 A7
What happens to the heart

[Interlude]

||: Dm  |  Bb  |  Bb/G  |  A7  ||

[Verse 5]
         Dm
Now the angel's got a fiddle
     Bb
The devil's got a harp
      Bb/G
Every soul is like a minnow
       A7
Every mind is like a shark
      Dm
I've broken every window
         Bb
But the house, the house is dark
  Bb/G
I care but very little
 A7
What happens to the heart


[Interlude]

||: Dm  |  Bb  |  Bb/G  |  A7  ||

[Verse 6]
         Dm
Then I studied with this beggar
        Bb
He was filthy, he was scarred
        Bb/G
By the claws of many women
         A7
He had failed to disregard
    Dm
No fable here no lesson
     Bb
No singing meadowlark
        Bb/G
Just a filthy beggar guessing
 A7                  Bb
What happens to the heart


[Interlude]

||: Bb/G  |  F  |  A7  ||


[Verse 7]
       Dm
I was always working steady
       Bb
But I never called it art
        Bb/G
It was just some old convention
          A7
Like the horse before the cart
  Dm
I had no trouble betting
        Bb
On the flood, against the ark
           Bb/G
You see, I knew about the ending
 A7          Dm
What happens to the heart

[Otro]
       Dm
I was handy with a rifle
     Bb
My father's .303
   Bb/G
I fought for something final
         A7
Not the right to disagree
