Greg Lake/Geoff Downes: Affairs of the heart
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From: Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Black Moon
Transcription by: Rainer Boettchers ([emailprotected])
Paderborn/Germany, July 1996
Tuning: EADGBE (Standard)
Comments: Again a .CRD file, again a simple transcription
(... beg your pardon, Greg ...). Again I have tried
to preserve the timing for the chord changes.
Emin 022000
Bmin x24432
Other chords shapes may be used instead. Listen to
the original song to find the bits and pieces.
And a 12string guitar is the best guitar for this song.

*** Main theme:
She looked at me across the room
Emerging from a silk cocoon
Alone beneath Venetian chandeliers
Against the moon her body rocks
Her eyes were cunning like a fox
The wings of passion fly on all frontiers
*** Refrain:
>From this fire there's no returning
No escape your heart is burning
Love becomes a lethal weapon
No one is too smart
In affairs of the heart ...
In affairs of the heart
*** Main theme:
Now upon the bridge she waits
Dreaming of our tangled fates
Her face was like a ghost with eyes of jade
(I) fell just like a falling star
I could not see behind this masquerade
*** Refrain:
>From this fire there's no returning
No escape your heart is burning
Love becomes a lethal weapon
(Be) careful where you start
In affairs of the heart ...
In affairs of the heart ...
In affairs of the heart
Sometimes I think I'll never learn
Were all those promises in vain
Do the wings of fire still remain
*** Main theme:
All is fair in love and war
The tender draw the shortest straw
Like autumn leaves they vanish in the air
Is this the time we say goodbye
I call her room there's no reply
Tonight we end this fleeting love affair
*** Refrain:
>From this fire there's no returning
No escape your heart is burning
Love becomes a lethal weapon
Sharper than a dart
In affairs of the heart ...
In affairs of the heart
In affairs of the heart ...
In affairs of the heart ...
