Bon Jovi - Every Word Was A Piece Of My Heart

D A D G
i’ve been staring at the page for what seems like days
D A D D
i guess i put this one off for a while
D A
did i see a tear fall from your eyes ?
D A
or did you laugh so hard that you cried ?
D A D
when i served my secrets on a silver tray to you ( hey now )
Em7 G G
hey now , i guess the night’s just bringing me down

D G
there’s no love , there’s no hate
D G
i left them there for you to take
D A D
but know that every word was a piece of my heart ( hey now )

D A
you’ve been the blood in my veins
D G
the only one who knows my middle name
D A D
and the smiles , they came easy ’cause of you ( hey now )
D A
you know that i love you , but i hate you
D G
’cause i know i can never escape you
D A D
so let the choir sing for tonight i’m an easy mark ( hey now )
Em7 G
hey now , Am i acting just a little too proud ?

D G
there’s no love , there’s no hate
D G
i left them there for you to take
D A D
but know that every word was a piece of my heart ( hey now )
D A
have i said too much
D G
maybe i haven’t said enough
D A D D
but know that every word was a piece of my heart ( hey now )

A G D
hush me darling , maybe i’ve lost my touch
A A
maybe i’ve lost my guts
G
there , is that truth enough ?
Em7 G
hey now , hey now . . .

D A
you know these love letters mix with whisky
D G
just don’t light a match when you kiss me
D A D
though i’ll blow away , you know i’ll be back soon ( hey now )
Em7 G Em7 G
hey now , hey now , hey now , Am i talking just a little too loud ?

D G
there’s no love , there’s no hate
D G
i left them there for you to take
D A D
but know that every word was a piece of my heart ( hey now )
D A
have i said too much
D G
maybe i haven’t said enough
D A D D
but know that every word was a piece of my heart ( hey now )

Em7 G
hey now , Am i talking just a little too proud ?
