Achy Breaky Heart       (midi)

 

      A ~  A ~       A

1.                     You can tell the world you never was my girl,  

                                                                     E

    you can burn my clothes up when I am gone.

 

    You can tell your friends just what a fool I've been,

                                                                  A

    and laugh and joke about me on the phone.

 

      A

2. You can tell my arms : Go back into the farm!

                                                      E

    You can tell my feet to hit the floor.

 

    You can tell my lips to tell my fingertips,

                                                                   A

    they won't be reaching out for you no more.

 

        A

But don't tell my heart, my achy breaky heart,

                                             E

I just don't think he'll understand.

 

But if you tell my heart, my achy breaky heart,

                                                  A

he might blow up and kill this man.        + Instr.:  A – E - A

 

      A

3. You can tell your Ma,  I moved to Arkansas,

                                                        E

    you can tell your dog to bite my leg.

             

    Or tell your brother Cliff, whose fist can tell my lips,

                                                   A

    he never really liked me anyway.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

          A

4. Or tell your Aunt Louise, tell anything you please,

                                                     E

    myself already knows I'm not O.K.

 

    Or you can tell my eyes to watch out for my mind,

                                                           A

    it might be walkin' out on me one day.
