HEARTS ARE GONNA ROLL (Hal Ketchum)
-----------------------------------
[Actually in either E or F; I play it in D and capo up 2 or 3.
 If you know which key it's really in, please let me know.]
[Each chord is half a measure, except "G - D" is half a measure total.]
[The triplets in the bridge and ending are D-A-D-G-F#-D (notes, not chords).]

D  G  C  G
[intro; repeat a few times]

      D              G    C  G             D      G         C  G
Ever since she was a baby,        settin' on her daddy's knee
          D                G      C  G           D    G         C   G
Had him wrapped around her finger,        doing anything she pleased

A           A              A         G - D  A      A           A    G - D
  She had a way of getting what she wanted;  Daddy knew in his mind
A      A         A               G - D   A            A          A    A
Pretty soon the boys would come running;  it's just a matter of time

         D              G    C  G   D              G   C  G
Before hearts are gonna roll,      heads are gonna turn
Bm              Bm        G              G
Tears are gonna fall, a bridge is gonna burn
  D              G   C  G   D              G   C  G
Hearts are gonna roll,    hearts are gonna roll

Now she changes like the weather, never stays in love too long
She'll take you to the limit just to leave you hanging on

Drop-dead looks and a mind for trouble, that's all the girl's ever known
Leaving behind a path of destruction, no matter where she goes

Hearts are gonna roll, heads are gonna turn
Tears are gonna fall, a bridge is gonna burn
Hearts are gonna roll, hearts are gonna roll

G            G         G            G         D          D          D   D
  Don't fall under the spell of her eyes, boy, she's not looking in you [trip.]
G         G         G       G     A             A           A    A
  Take it from somebody who knows: she's moving right on through

And hearts are gonna roll, heads are gonna turn
Tears are gonna fall, a bridge is gonna burn
Hearts are gonna roll, hearts are gonna roll

      D              G    C(9)  G             D      G        C(9)  G
Ever since she was a baby,           settin' on her daddy's knee
          D                G      C(9)  G          D    G         C(9)  G
Had him wrapped around her finger,           doing anything she pleased

And hearts are gonna roll, hearts are gonna roll
Hearts are gonna roll, hearts are gonna roll (watch 'em roll now)

D   G   C   G      D   G   C   G      Bm  Bm   D    D    D.
