Dyslexic Heart
--------------
By Paul Westerberg
This song is off the Singles soundtrack. The chord are simple; some
would say the song is simplistic, but that doesn't change the fact
that it is an enjoyable tune. Here are what I think are the chords.
Basic Pattern of verses: F/C/F/C|F/C/G |F/C/F/C|D G |
--> Listen to the song to understand what I mean. This is played
during the verses and between sections, generally.
The F--->C means go right into the basic pattern.
Begins:
Basic Pattern X 4, along with the "na na na's"
F C F C
You're shooting glances and they're so hard to read
F C G
I misconstrue what you mean
F C F C
Slip me a napkin, and now that's a start
D G
Is this your name or a doctor's eye chart?
(Chorus)
F G A F--->C
I try to comprehend you but I got a dyslexic heart.
F G A F--->C
I ain't dying to offend you but I got a dyslexic heart.
(Second Verse)--chords same as first
Thanks for the book, now my table is steady
It's a library or a bar
Between the covers I judge you as ready
Half-angel, half-tart(?)
(chorus)
F C F C
Do I read you correctly? You need me directly
D G
Help me with this part
F G A F--->C
Do I date you do I hate you do I got a dyslexic heart?
G F
You keep swayin' What are you sayin'?
G A F
Think about stayin' Are you just playin', making passes
E G
Well my heart could use some glasses....
F G
Are you stayin'? What are you savin'?
F A F
Or are you swayin'? Just playing, making passes
E G
Well my heart could use some glasses...
(Chorus)--same chords, these words
I try to comprehend you but I got a dyslexic heart
Do I read you correctly? I need you directly.
Help me with this part.
Do I love you do I hate you--I got a dyslexic heart
--The song fades away with the basic pattern & lots
of na na na's
Hope this helps someone! Let me know if I missed
something or mistranscribed it.
