Tip of My Tongue John Hiatt
-----------------------------
[E] [A] [E] [A] [C#m] [A] [B]
An empty [E]house[A] is the only thi[E]ng standing
Between our[B] lives and th[A]e speed of[E] sound
Some [C#m]words [B]flew [E]out[A] and made a [E]crash landing
No lo[B]ve survived - not a [A]trace could be[E] found
And I b[C#m]roke your heart with the [E]back [E/G#]of my[A] mind[Am]
[E] [A] [B] [E] [A] [C#m] [A] [B]
I walked away and you stood there trembling
Like a leaf in the autumn chill
Now this house won't say, no, what I'm still remembering
Three angry words and a love that they killed
And I broke your heart with the back of my mind
[E] [E7]
[F#m] And you couldn't [B]say how much it [E]hurt you[E7]
[F#m] And I couldn't [B]see the damage I'd[E] done[E7]
[A] Till I watched [B]the greatest [Ab]love I've [C#m]known
[F#] All come down to a slip of the [B]tongue
Well I'd take it back but time won't let me
Oh time just takes you further away
I watched you pack a house full of memories
Where did you go? Lord, what did I say?
And I broke your heart with the back of my mind
[E] [A]
[E] [A] [B] [E] [A]
[E] [B] [E]
