John Hiatt (born on August 20, 1952 in Indianapolis, Indiana, U.S.) is an American blues and rock guitarist, pianist, and singer-songwriter. He has been nominated for eleven Grammy Awards. Hiatt's sales have never quite matched his reputation. His songs have been covered by a wide variety of artists such as Bonnie Raitt, Ronnie Milsap, Willie Nelson, Iggy Pop, Three Dog Night, and The Neville Brothers, yet it took him thirteen years to reach the charts himself.

TIP OF MY TONGUE - John Hiatt ----------------------------- EAEAC#mAB
EAE An empty house is the only thing standing BAE Between our lives and the speed of sound C#mBEAE Some words flew out and made a crash landing BAE No love survived - not a trace could be found
C#mEE/G#AAm And I broke your heart with the back of my mind EABEAC#mAB From the tip of my tongue to the end of the line
I walked away and you stood there trembling Like a leaf in the autumn chill Now this house won't say, no, what I'm still remembering Three angry words and a love that they killed
And I broke your heart with the back of my mind EE7 From the tip of my tongue to the end of the line
F#mBEE7 And you couldn't say how much it hurt you F#mBEE7 And I couldn't see the damage I'd done ABG#C#m Till I watched the greatest love I've known F#B All come down to a slip of the tongue
Well I'd take it back but time won't let me Oh time just takes you further away I watched you pack a house full of memories Where did you go? Lord, what did I say?
And I broke your heart with the back of my mind EA From the tip of my tongue to the end of the line EABEA From the tip of my tongue to the end of the line EBE From the tip of my tongue to the end of the line ------------
