You can play this with D#, Cm and G#, but with a capo on first it makes it a lot easier
play. You can make this sound quite good acoustically or electric, with interesting
patterns or heavy effects. This is NOT meant to be like José González’s version. And,
to what I previously believed, The Knife (www.theknife.net) did the original and
is a cover.
D
One night to be confused
D
One night to speed up truth
Bm
We had a promise made
G
Four hands and then away
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_knife/heartbeats_crd.html ]
Both under influence
We had divine scent
To know what to say
Mind is a razorblade
CHORUS
To call for/of hands of above
To lean on
Wouldn’t be good enough
For me, no
One night of magic rush
The start: a simple touch
One night to push and scream
And then, relief
Ten days of perfect tunes
The colours red and blue
We had a promise made
We were in love
CHORUS
D Bm
And you, you knew the hand of a devil
D Bm
And you, kept us awake with wolves’ teeth
G
Sharing different heartbeats
D
In one night
CHORUS
