TOWN CALLED HEARTBREAK
by Patti Scialfa
Hey guys, this is my attempt of figuring out the chords to an acoustic version of this
song. Any help is greatly appreciated, I´m not quite sure if it fits a 100% but it sounds
good to me so far. Just comment if you have any ideas on how to make it sound more accurate.
TUNING
Either low e string tuned one step down OR guitar tuned one step down and a capo on the
2nd fret except first low e string (chords according to capo).
Just lift your finger from the 4th string when playing the Dm chord to make it sound
better. I listened to the acoustic version where Patti sings a duet with Bruce Springsteen
during his Magic Tour. The lyrics are probably not 100% like the ones on the album version.
CHORDS
Dm (0-0-0-2-3-1)-| G (3-2-0-0-0-1)--| Am (0-0-2-2-1-0)-|
[Dm]They say love
[Dm]A love has its very own light
[Dm]That can shine through the darkest night
[Dm]That we've heard of
[Dm]And that light
[Dm]That you may want so much
[Dm]Well maybe you can never touch
[Dm]Though you may try
[G]Now at night I dream
[Dm]I'm all alone
[G]Big sledgehammer and a [Dm]cold dark stone
[G]Man swing the hammer
[Dm]World begin to shake
[Dm]I'm just living in a [Am]town called Heartbreak[Dm]
[Dm]Now Eve
[Dm]She stood by Adam's side
[Dm]Ah, somewhere in paradise
[Dm]When the world was young
[Dm]And their love
[Dm]That was so pure and sound
[Dm]Was cursed straight into the ground
[Dm]That they walked on
Now [G]somewhere in every kiss
[Dm]I still feel the blame
Like a [G]dirty link
[Dm]In a long dark chain
[G]Man pull the chain
[Dm]World begin to shake
[Dm]I'm just living in a [Am]town called Heartbreak[Dm]
You gotta [G]work with me baby
You gotta [Dm]work with me baby
You gotta [G]work with me baby
You gotta [Dm]work with me baby
You gotta [G]work with me baby
You gotta [Dm]work with me baby
You gotta [G]work with me baby
You gotta [Am]work with me baby[Dm]
[Dm]She says "man,
[Dm]I've given you my flesh and blood
[Dm]But that just wasn't good enough
[Dm]You wanted my soul"
[Dm]He says "girl,
[Dm]No matter how hard I try
[Dm]You just ain't ever satisfied
[Dm]no no no"
Now at [G]night the same dream
[Dm]I'm all alone
[G]Big sledgehammer and a [Dm]cold dark stone
[G]Man swing the hammer
[Dm]World begin to shake
[Dm]I'm just living in a [Am]town called Heartbreak[Dm]
You gotta [G]work with me baby
You gotta [Dm]work with me baby
You gotta [G]work with me baby
You gotta [Dm]work with me baby
You gotta [G]work with me baby
You gotta [Dm]work with me baby
You gotta [G]work with me baby
You gotta [Am]work with me baby
[Dm]I'm just living in a [Am]town called Heartbreak ([G]I'm just living in a [Am]town called Heartbreak)
[Dm]I'm just living in a [Am]town called Heartbreak ([G]I'm just living in a [Am]town called Heartbreak
[Dm]
