Cross My Heart

>From the Album "Human Touch"



Chords:   E    A    B

E-------0-------X-------X----|



I find that using the B chord above is better than the full barre

 chord in the seventh fret.  It gives the song a chunkier sound,

 but of course, do what feels and sounds best to you.



E

First time I crossed my heart I was beggin' baby please



At your bedside Down on my knees

         A

When I crossed my heart

         E

When I crossed my heart

    B                                E

I crossed my heart Pretty baby over you

E

Second time I crossed my heart rain came in from the south



I was lyin' there with somethin' sweet and salty in my mouth

         A

When I crossed my heart

         E

When I crossed my heart

    B                                   E

I crossed my heart pretty darlin' over you



                        A

Well you may think the world is black and white

               E

And you're dirty or you're clean

             A

You better watch out you don't slip

                B

Through those spaces in between



           E

Where the night gets sticky and the sky turns black



I grabbed you baby and you grabbed me back

         A

And we crossed our hearts

          E

We crossed our hearts

    B                  E

Yeah I crossed my heart ..........



Repeat chords twice





             A

Well little boys little girls

                       E

Hell they know their wrongs from their rights

               A

And once you cross your heart

            B

You ain't never supposed to lie



      E

Well life ain't nothing but a cold hard ride



I ain't leavin' 'till I'm satisfied

    A

I cross my heart

         E

Yeah I cross my heart

    B                                  E

Well I cross m y heart pretty darlin' over you
