by Roxette

Trans. Vaclav Subrta (xsubv01@jms.vse.cz)

[Verse 1]

E--4-7--------

C#m
My Papa told me to stay out of trouble

A----4---
E--4-----
                                                G#m
"When you've found your man, make sure he's for real!"

(here's the first guitar riff)

C#m
I've learned that nothing really lasts forever

(here's the second guitar riff)

                                         G#m   
I sleep with the scars I wear that won't heal
           F#  F#+  F#*  F#  B
they won't heal.

[Chorus]

Cos every time I seem to fall in love
             B*       B
Crash! Boom! Bang!
    
I find the heart but then I hit the wall
             B*
Crash! Boom! Bang!
           C#               A
That's the call, that's the game
        E              B
and the pain stays the same

[Verse 2]

I'm walking down this empty road to nowhere
I pass by the houses and blocks I once knew.
My Mama told me not to mess with sorrow
But I always did, and Lord, I still do
I'm still breaking the rules
I kick it up
I kick it down.

[Chorus]

Cos every time ...
          C#          A
That's my real middle-name
       E               B
It has always been the same
           C#               A
That's the call, that's the game
        E              B
and the pain stays the same.


[Bridge]

Em               C
I still feel the heat     /Slowly fallin' from the sky/
        G            D
and the taste of the kissing     
Em           C
Shattered by rain       /Comin' tumblin' from behind/
        G         D
And the wild holy war

C#m  G#m  ... (something like that)

F#  F#+  F#*  F#

I kick it up I kick it down

[Chorus]

And every time I seem to fall in love
Crash! Boom! Bang!
I find the roses dying on the floor 
Crash! Boom! Bang!
That's the call, that's the game
and the pain stays the same
That's my real middle-name
It has always been the same...


I play the chords like this:
