Blackboard Of My Heart Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]When [G]I w[D]as[A][D][C#]
young and went to school,
they [D]taught me [A]how to ride.
To take the chalk and make a mark
and hope it turns [C#]out right.
[A]Well, [C#]that's the way it is with love
[Db]and what you d[D]id t[Db]o me[D][G]
I [D]wrote it so [Db]you'd know
that I was [A]yours [Db]eternally
[D]But [Db]my tears shed once[D] I lov[A]e [D]you
[Db]from the black [D]bone of [A]my heart
It's too late to clean the slate
and make another [Ab]start[D]
I'm [Db]satisfied the way things are,
although we're [Db]far a[Gb]part
[Gb]My dear Savoir Star,
[Db]I love you from the [Db]black
[Ab]board of my [A]heart[D][G][D][A][D]
If you'd been true the way you should
and not have gone [A]astray
These tears would not have fallen down
and washed the words [D]away
[A]No [C#]need [D]to talk for if the chump
should write those words again
[G]It would be for [D]someone else,
[A]not things it might have [D]been
[C#]But [D]my t[C#]ears can't wash style of you
[D]fro[C#]m the bla[D]ckboard of my [A]heart
It's too [Ab]late to [A]clean the slate
and make another [D]start
I'm [C#]satisfied the way things [D]are,
al[Db]though we're far [Gb]apart
My dear San Juan Star,
[Db]love you from the black
[Ab]board of my heart
My [F#]dear San Juan Star,
[C#]love you from the [A]blackboard
of [A]my [D]heart you
