Chords for Bob Bennett - Heart of the Matter (1982)

_ _ [E] I'm just a man in a world [B] full of men just [C#m] like me
_ _ [F#] With a heart [F] full of [F#m] questions and answers
[C#m] That seem to be somewhat [B] connected
_ _ [F#m] And a head full of preconceived notions
[F#m] That manage [B] to get in the way
[Em] _ _ [E] _
And [F#m] I find myself longing to [E]
return
Back [E] _ _ [F#m] to the place where I started
_ [C#m] Back when I knew next [B] to nothing
[F#] Back [G#] to the [C#m] heart
[B] Back to the [F#m] heart [E] of the matter
_ [A]
To the heart [E] of the matter
_ [A] To the heart of the [B] matter
_ [E] _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ [B] _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [C] _
_ [Em] _ _ [E] _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [E] Hearts, a whole journey
[A] Between [B] tears and [E] rage
A short journey through the human [A] zoo
In this mortal [E] cage
Words, like weapons
Ask no [B] questions as [E] they kill People, wounded
[A] One's [F#] dancing, another's standing [A] still
And all these things I can't explain
Oh, they keep on running round my brain
And drive me deep, deep through [E] the heart
_ [E] _ _ _ [A] To [E] the heart of the matter
[A] Whoa, whoa, whoa _
[E] Clam to the slaughter
[A] Well aware of the consequence
[E] Saving fallen men
[A] Living and dying in this present tense
So many things I can't explain
[F#] Oh, they lose and confuse me again [A] and again
They drive me deep, [F#] deep through the [E] heart
_ [A] _ _ [G] To [E] the heart of the [C#m] _ [A] matter
Whoa, whoa, [G] whoa
To the [E] heart of the matter
_ _ [A] _ _ To the [E] heart of the matter
_ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ [E] _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ A light shining in this heart of darkness
A new [A] beginning and a miracle
[E] Day by [B] day the [A] integration
Of the [E] concrete and the spiritual
[G] Oh, [D] whoa, whoa
[B] You can show me [E] these sales curves
Plot my life on a flow chart
You can count up your converts
[F#] And this is where it all starts
Oh, you can [E] show me your sales [A] curves
But there's just some things that numbers can't [B] measure
_ _ [A] These fragile pieces of priceless [B] treasure
_ _ _ [A] There's just some things that numbers [B] can't measure
In matters of the heart
_ _ [A] _
_ [E] _ _ [A] [B] Matters of the heart
[A] _
_ [B] _ _ Matters of the [A] heart
_ [B] _ _ [A] [B] Matters of the heart _ _
