Diggin Up The Heart chords by Brandon Flowers

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:

G+G
Tony came back to town
With his cap and gown
That they give 'em at the state pen
        E minorEm
Breaking and entering will do that
Tony's momma says: "He's only human"

G+G
Look what the cat dragged in
From his next of kin
His little sister hugs the Tin Man
       E minorEm
Tony, she's grown
Ain't she pretty in a little black dress

           C majorC
He's digging up the heart
       G+G
To know the price he paid

Verse 2:

G+G
You can hear the train
When you're in the cage
            C majorC
And you can smell the rain
And you can see the sage
           G+G
Brush threaten the highway
        D MajorD
But you can't drive

               E minorEm
And when he finally put the asphalt to the tire
              C majorC
It looked something like Sistene oil and fire
           D MajorD
Ripping through the dark
           G+G
He's diggin' up the heart

        C majorC G+G

        D MajorD   G+G

           C majorC
Well it ain't that strange
D MajorD       G+G
Any boy can change
D MajorD       C majorC D MajorD G+G
Diggin' up the heart

Verse 3:

G+G
One, two, three, four, five
Oh me, oh my
Count the reasons that you shouldn't be messing
     E minorEm
With the sons of perdition
Never gonna take you down the straight and narrow

G+G
Fever dreaming of a place
That you just can't get
Like you're burning in a pit
            E minorEm
Little brother, you're lying to yourself
If you think you've changed

          C majorC
It's just another part
       G+G
Ain't this something strange

Verse 4:

G+G
When Tony left they were scratching at the door
   C majorC
In particular, one wanted him more
       G+G
Her name was Christie
           D MajorD
The Queen of Humboldt County
         E minorEm
But 3 to 5 is a lifetime at that age
            C majorC
Christie met herself another boy, got engaged
         D MajorD
Left him in the dark
           G+G
He's diggin' up the heart

Diggin' up the heart

He's diggin' up the heart
         D MajorD  G+G
Diggin' up the heart
        C majorC
With a little luck
D MajorD          G+G
With the times get rough
D MajorD       C majorC D MajorD G+G
Diggin' up the heart

Now the clerk's got his hands up
But his mind's on the mark
His 38 beneath the register
He's diggin' up the heart
