How The Heart Approaches What It Yearns chords
Start Jamming...
In the blue light of the Belvedere Motel,
[E] [A]
wondering as the [E]
television burns,
[B] how the heart approaches what [E] it yearns.
In a fever, I distinctly hear your [G#] voice
[A] emerging from a [E] dream, dream returns,
[B]
how the heart approaches [B]
what [E] it yearns.
[F#] After [A#m] the rain on the interstate,
[A#m]
[C] headlights [Cm] slide past [A#m] the moon,
[D#m] a bone-weary [D#] traveler [C#] waits by the side of [F#] the road.
[D#m] [F#m]
Where's he going?

[E]
[F#] Here we are [A#m] lying [A#m] on the top of a hill,
[F#] and headlights [Cm] slide past [A#m] the moon.
[D#] I roll in your arms and your [C#] voice is the heat [F#] of the night.
[F#m] I'm on fire [B] in [E] a phone booth
in some local bar and grill,
[G#m] [A] rehearsing what I'll [E] say in my coin returns,
how the heart [B] approaches what it [E] yearns.
[B] How the heart approaches what it [E] yearns.
