Intro: B
(verse 1)
B
She was touching up her make up I was standing next in line,
B
Couldn't help but notice neath those powder room lights,
E
There was china red outlined in black on the left side of her shoulder,
B
In plain view
A E B
I just had to ask hey, what's with that half a heart tattoo,
(verse 2)
B
She glanced at me through the mirror and just started to laugh,
B
She said I know this looks funny but there is another half,
E7
And it's china red outlined in black on the right side of his shoulder,
B
Last I knew,
A E B
Yeah somewhere out there is a match to this half a heart tattoo,
(chorus)
A D B
Well last I heard some red head caught his eye in New Orleans,
A B
and before it was a blonde in Baton Rouge,
A D B
I know there are at least a dozen gals out sporting one of these,
A F#
Thinking they are the only fool,
A E B
That he's left with a half a heart tattoo,
(verse 3)
B
Well girl you got my sympathy I knew a guy like that,
B
I said Well you ain't gonna believe this then I pulled my jacket back,
E7
Yeah it's china red outlined in black on the left side of my shoulder,
B
Still fairly new yeah,
A E B
I guess there's just a whole mess of us with a half a heart tattoo,
(chorus)
A D B
Well the last I heard he'd moved in with some dancer from L.A.
A B
But I'm bettin that won't last a week or two,
A D B
He loves long enough to leave his mark and then he's on his way,
A F#
He's so good they never have a clue,
A E B
til they're stuck with a half a heart tattoo,
