                     (... beg your pardon, Greg ...). Again I have tried
                     to preserve the timing for the chord changes.

                     Other chords shapes may be used instead. Listen to 
                     the original song to find the bits and pieces.
                     And a 12string guitar is the best guitar for this song.

*** Intro:

E  Esus4  E  Esus4

*** Main theme:

    E
She looked at me across the room

 Esus4
Emerging from a silk cocoon

 E                        Esus4
Alone beneath Venetian chandeliers

 E                      
Against the moon her body rocks

    Esus4
Her eyes were cunning like a fox

    E                            Esus4
The wings of passion fly on all frontiers

*** Refrain:

B                        E

A
No escape your heart is burning

B                  E
Love becomes a lethal weapon

A
No one is too smart

                  E ... Esus4
In affairs of the heart ...

                  E ... Esus4
In affairs of the heart

*** Main theme:

E
Now upon the bridge she waits

Esus4
Dreaming of our tangled fates

    E                               Esus4
Her face was like a ghost with eyes of jade

    E
(I) fell just like a falling star

  Esus4
A victim of this coup d'etat

  E                            Esus4
I could not see behind this masquerade

*** Refrain:

B                        E

A
No escape your heart is burning

B                  E
Love becomes a lethal weapon

     A
(Be) careful where you start

                  E ... Esus4 
In affairs of the heart ...

                  E ... Esus4
In affairs of the heart ...

                  Em9 ... F#min ... G
In affairs of the heart

            A             Em9 ... F#min ... G
Sometimes I think I'll never learn

               A          Em9 ... F#min ... G 
Were all those promises in vain

                A       Bm9  ... A
Do the wings of fire still remain

... E ... Esus4 ... E ... Esus4

*** Main theme:

E
All is fair in love and war

    Esus4
The tender draw the shortest straw

     E                             Esus4
Like autumn leaves they vanish in the air

   E
Is this the time we say goodbye

  Esus4
I call her room there's no reply

  E                            Esus4
Tonight we end this fleeting love affair

*** Refrain:

B                        E

A
No escape your heart is burning

B                  E
Love becomes a lethal weapon

A
Sharper than a dart

                  E ... Esus4
In affairs of the heart ...

                  E ... Esus4
In affairs of the heart

              E ... Esus4
In affairs of the heart ...

... E ... Esus4

              E ... Esus4
In affairs of the heart ...

(fade out) ... E ... Esus4 ... E ... Esus4.
