Bill Staines â~@~S Heart of Stone
Capo 3rd
[G+G]Carved a little heart of stone
[CBack when I was all alone
Gave it to a [D MajorD]lady fair
One with bright and [G+G]shiny hair
[G+G]She came in on a western wind
Loved me then was [C majorC]gone again
Took a bit of [D MajorD]me back then
Along with a heart of [G+G]stone
Red and yellow cactus flowers
Blossomed after morning showers
Limpid eyes of glacier blue
Saw the world as lovers do
So beneath the starry light
We shared the magic desert night
Love was fire burning bright
Carved in a heart of stone
[C/e]Heart [C majorC]of [G+G]stone
I [C majorC]carved a little heart of [G+G]stone
[C/e]Heart [C majorC]in [G+G]love
[C majorC]Forever there will be a heart in [D MajorD]love
Just a little memory
That now and then comes back to me
Another place another time
Another tune another rhyme
But I wonder if sheâ~@~Yll ever know
Just how much I loved her so
It was written deep as stories go
Carved in a heart of stone
chorus
Perhaps some day a little child
We stop and ask her mother mild
Mamma what was love to you
Back when all your dreams were new
And her mother she will answer low
Perhaps the slightest smile will show
Well it was written deep as stories go
Carved in a heart of stone
