Rick Springfield - Honeymoon In Beirut Chords

[Verse]
 
A                    F#m
I wake up every night (to the sound)
                         Bm
To the sound of breaking glass
                     E
Got troops in the bed and tanks in the hall
A                              F#m
I kidnapped and held for ransom (the one in me)
                       Bm
The one in me that you loved
                    E                                          A
We wait for the fall and put emotional bullet holes in the wall
                                  F#m
And we both, keep sending signals all is well wish you were here
 
 
[Chorus]
 
D
Honeymoon In Beirut
E          C#m             Bm
Although I keep on sending postcards from heaven (tell me)
D        E
Why do I stay (I don't know)
D
Honeymoon In Beirut
E            C#m
And we still keep pretending
Bm
Sixes are sevens (tell me)
D            E
Why can't we say
            F#m
There is no honeymoon
           C#m        Bm C#m
This is no honeymoon, no
            F#m

Honeymoon In Beirut
E            C#m

Bm
No quarter given (there's just)
D            E                           A   D A
Blood on the bed, where there used to be love
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
A                    F#m
Strategy and maneuvers (have replaced)
                  Bm
Any love that was here
                         E
We have dinner in silence and bullets with beer
A                         F#m
I don't know what you want (my defeat)
               Bm
Or complete surrender
                    E
Or peace in our time
                                A
While in bed we draw the battle line and we sit, out in the rain
                 F#m
Writing cards to friends back home the weather is fine
 
 
[Chorus 2]

[Bridge]
