Unbreakable Heart

----------------------------------------------------------------

[Sorry it's kind of hard to read; the lines of this song are structured

oddly. All the verses are basically the same, but I wrote them all out

because they're not easy to memorize.]

[I'm pretty unsure about a lot of these chords, especially in the bridge.

Any suggestions are more than welcome.]

[The C's and Em's with * by them have an extra high G in them (pinky on

the 3rd fret of the E string).]

 

An empty house, a broken fairy tale

G Bm C Am7/D Em* Em* C* C/D

A hollow girl with empty arms

A7sus4 Em Am B7 Em* Em*

>From an angel's tears, God made the stars

A9/C# A9/C# C* C Am/D Am/D G Bm C Am7/D

Why can't he make me an unbreakable heart

 

In my blue world, you shone like heaven's fire

G Bm C Am7/D Em* Em* C* C/D

And left me crying in the dark

A7sus4 Em Am B7 Em* Em*

How could any - one be so hard

A9/C# A9/C# C* C Am/D Am/D G C/G G G

Did you think I had an unbreakable heart

Ddim7/G# Am7 F#m7-5 Em - D C G/B Am G

I suppose I should know sometimes love just comes and goes

Ddim7/G# Am7 F#m7-5 Em - D A7 A7 C C/D

But I believed, foolish me, we'd go on and on

One day, someone will come to you

G Bm C Am7/D Em* Em* C* C/D

And rock you tight - ly in her arms

A7sus4 Em Am B7 Em* Em*

Please remember this when you drop your guard

A9/C# A9/C# C* C Am/D Am/D G Bm C Am7/D

Nobody has an unbreakable heart

A7sus4 Em Am B7 Em* Em*

>From an angel's wings to a falling star

A9/C# A9/C# C* C Am/D Am/D G Bm C Am7/D G.

God makes everything but unbreakable hearts

CHORDS:

Am7/D: xx0010 Em*: 022003 C*: x32013 C/D: xx0010 A7sus4: x02030

A9/C#: x42000 Am/D: xx0210 Ddim7: xx0101 or xx0131 F#m7-5: 2x2210

A couple other notes on the chords:

1) The C* and Em* chords probably aren't really played by the guitar;

I just put them in because they echo the melody of the song.

2) The B7 isjust two quarter notes. The first doesn't include an F# on

the high E string, the second does. (I.e., play x2120x, then x21202.)

3) In the bridge, where it goes Em - D, don't play the highest strings on

either of those chords. (The D is more like D5.)

4) In the A9/C#, make sure you hit that C#, or it'll sound weird.

5) In the Em* chords before A9/C#, you can play the descending notes

by moving your pinky from 3 down to 2 as you get toward the A9.
