Chrome Plated Heart
 
 -------------------

On Melissa Etheridge's first album.
Following from Lauren's chord posting (with one or two changes).
[intro] :

 D ---2---2--0--------0h2-----2---2--0------------2p0-.
 A ---2--------0-h-2----.-----2------------------------
 E ---0-----------------------0---------------------.-- 

I got a chrome plated heart
wings on these fingers trying to tear it apart
[pattern 1, but at 5tb fret] 
 
 e ----------------------------------------------------
 B ----------------------------------------------------
 G (6)-----------------------------------6-h-7-p-6-----
 D ---7---7--5--------5h7-----7---7--5------------7p5--
 A ---7--------5-h-7----.-----7------------------------
 E ---5-----------------------5---------------------.-- 

I got angels crying from up above
[pattern 1 again, back down at E] 
And they got ru[E]st in their eyes They got rust on their love
[C#m] [A]  
 
 e -------------------------------------------------------------
 B -------------5--------5--------------------5---------5-------
 G --------6--------6---------6--------------------6---------6--
 D ------6------------6------------------7-----------7----------
 A -4---------------------------------7-------------------------
 E --------------------------------5---------------------------- 

But I have learned to leave no stone unturned
[pattern2] 
[C#m] keep the wall against my b[A]ack
& the love is real as the day is long
[Pattern1]^�
and the [E]night is black
as black as night
[pattern 1, at E/nut] 
I got a t[E]wo dollar stare
Midas in my touch and Deliliah in my hair
[pattern 1 at A (5tb fret)] 
I got [A]bad intentions on the soles of my shoes
[pattern1, at E(nut)] 
With this [E]red hot fever and these chromium blues
[pattern2] 
[C#m] and I will feel another l[A]over's wheel
drive for miles and not look back
& the love is real as the day is long
[pattern1] 
and the [E]night is black
as black as night

chrome plated heart. . .
[repeat last riff to fade] 
* don't play the G string yet, but keep your hand in an Emajor shape
throughout the riff. Also its best to use your 2nd,3rd & 4th fingers for
the E, coz you'll need your index finger for a barre in a minute.
$- is pop/slap bass- pick this by hooking the string away from the
scratchplate with your thumb(nail).
h is a hammer on
p is a pull off
. is cut the note short
