Diggin Up The Heart chords by Brandon Flowers

Verse 1:

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

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

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

Verse 2:

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

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

?horus:

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

Verse 3:

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

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

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

Verse 4:

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

Chorus:

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

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

Bridge:

G
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
