Graham Parker The Beating of Another Heart Lyrics:
Intro G Em Bm G C D

G D
She comes from the
hardest town
Em Bm C
they build you up
to let you down
and
D Em G Bm D
leave you with an
armour hard as
steel

G D
It's not the chaos
or the heat
Em Bm C
or the noises from
the street but
D
something inside
she has to beat
that

Em Bm Em Bm
shoots out a nerve
causes judgements
to swerve
C G D
and makes her feel
that something
must be wrong

Em Bm
She'll attempt to resist
C G D
and pretend it
don't exist when
it does

C D
But if ever her
defence drop
C D
love takes a shot pop
C D
Baby you can't stop

G
the beating of
another heart
Em C
the beating of
another heart yeah
D Em D G
sometimes she
needs the beating
of another heart

Em Bm G C D
(just chords)

G D
All the steps we
seem to take
Em Bm C D
are sometimes
stairways to
escape from
Em G Bm D

all the things
that were supposed
to come

G D
And there's a threat
when letting go
Em Bm C
Showing things she'll
never show but
D
I won't give in now I know

Em Bm Em Bm
as I ask friend
how on earth can
I send
C G D
a little bit of me to her

Em Bm
She'll attempt to resist
C G D
and pretend I don't
exist when I do

C D
But if ever her
defence drop
C D
love takes a shot pop
C D
Baby you can't stop

G
the beating of
another heart
Em C
the beating of
another heart yeah
D Em D Em D
sometimes she
needs the beating
of another heart

C# D A
The pounding
goes on forever
C# D A
at night when we are
here together
C# D A D
They say that
people get too
clever for love

Em C
but I know

Solo

C D
But if ever her
defence drop
C D
love takes a shot pop
C D
Baby you can't stop

G
the beating of
another heart

the beating of
another heart yeah

sometimes she
needs the beating
of another heart
