Rab Noakes - Don't Act Like Your Heart Isn't Hard
[INTRO:] G D C G D C G D C G D C
[VERSE 1:]
G D C
Don't act like your heart isn't hard
G D C
And that the joker isn't your card
G D C
Changing your tune as you put up your guard
G D
And go whistling past a graveyard
[VERSE 2:]
C G D
You change your mind like you're changing your clothes
C G D
Though you dress in rags and you turn up your nose
C G D
When it makes no sense, I will act like it does
C G D
Coming to your defence though I have no weapons
[VERSE 3:]
G D C
So don't act like your heart isn't hard
G D C
That the truth in your head isn't dark
G D C
You can turn Tin Pan Alley into a boulevard
G D
And go whistling past a graveyard
[VERSE 4:]
C G D
Don't want the pretence of what love shouldn't be
C G D
It'll bore you to death before setting you free
C G D
To be just as good or bad as you are
C G D
In the eye of the storm, we will both be sorry
[BRIDGE:]
Am7 D
Don't hide your tears behind a facade
C D
Of a thousand jokes you thought I forgot
Em D
And then blame me for no longer laughing
[VERSE 5:]
G D C
Everyone's cruel at times
G D C
When you're not at your best and you're crossing the line
G D C
I'll look past your mistakes if you look past mine
G D
And go stumbling past a gold mine
[OUTRO:] G D C G D C G D C
G D C
Don't act like your heart isn't hard
