Rea Chris - I Can Hear Your Heartbeat guitar chord

I CAN HEAR YOUR HEARTBEAT by Chris Rea

from the albums ?Water Sign? / ?New Light Through Old Windows?

| G   D | - that?s the whole progression throughout the song

           The D-chord is very short on the 2nd eight note of 3!

VERSE 1

In the silence of the side street

In the whisper of the night

From the darkness of the empty hours

To the early morning light

From the hustle down on main street

With all its lights so bright

To the trucker on a highway

Pressing through the night

I can hear your heartbeat

I can hear your heartbeat

Girl the sound of you is so sweet to me

VERSE 2

I?m in a European disco

And it?s thumping out the beat

There?s a juke box in a cafe

Where the younger ones can meet

We got freezing Coca-Cola

We got anything you want

I can feel the backbeat

Girl but it?s you that sings the song

And I can hear your heartbeat

Yeah I can hear your heartbeat

Girl the sound of you is so sweet to me

VERSE 3

And I?m sailing on your windsong

Yeah I can feel this summer breeze

You?ve got me walking on my tip-toes

You?ve got me standing on my knees

From the mills way down in Pittsburgh

To the clubs of gay Paris (speak Paree)

No matter where I roam girl

You can always get to me

And I can hear your heartbeat

Yeah I can hear your heartbeat

Girl the sound of you is so sweet to me

(These are the lyrics as they appear on ?Water Sign?; when Chris Rea re-recorded the song in 1988 he changed the progression a little bit ? the third verse became second and he only sung the second half of the second verse as a bridge)
