Keep Me In Your Heart
Warren Zevon & Jorge Calderon
[Verse 1]
G Gmaj7 Cadd9 G
Shadows are falling and I’m running out of breath
Cadd9 G
Keep me in your heart for a while
G Gmaj7 Cadd9 G
If I leave you it doesn’t mean I love you any less
Cadd9 G
Keep me in your heart for a while
[Verse 2]
When you get up in the morning and you see that crazy sun
Keep me in your heart for a while
There’s a train leaving nightly called when all is said and done
Keep me in your heart for a while
[Chorus]
(same chords as verse)
Sha-la la-la-la la-la-li li-lo
Keep me in your heart for a while
Sha-la la-la-la la-la-li li-lo
Keep me in your heart for a while
[Interlude]
[Verse 3]
Sometimes when you’re doing simple things around the house
Maybe you’ll think of me and smile
You know I’m tied to you like the buttons on your blouse
Keep me in your heart for a while
[Bridge]
Cadd9 G/B
Hold me in your thoughts, take me to your dreams
Am7 G
Touch me as I fall into view
Cadd9 G/B
When the winter comes keep the fires lit
Am7 D7
And I will be right next to you
[Verse 4]
Engine driver’s headed north to Pleasant Stream
Keep me in your heart for a while
These wheels keep turning but they’re running out of steam
Keep me in your heart for a while
[Chorus]
Sha-la la-la-la la-la-li li-lo
Keep me in your heart for a while
Sha-la la-la-la la-la-li li-lo
Keep me in your heart for a while
[Outro]
Cadd9 G
Keep me in your heart for a while
