E First time I crossed my heart I was beggin' baby please At your bedside Down on my knees A When I crossed my heart E When I crossed my heart B E I crossed my heart Pretty baby over you Second time I crossed my heart, rain came in from the south I was lyin' there with something sweet and salty in my mouth When I crossed my heart When I crossed my heart When I crossed my heart, pretty darlin', over you A Well you may think the world is black and white E And you're dirty or you're clean A You better watch out you don't slip B Through those spaces in between Where the night gets sticky and the sky gets black I grabbed you, baby, and you grabbed me back And we crossed our hearts We crossed our hearts Yeah, I crossed my heart Little boys, little girls, they know their wrongs from their rights Once you crossed your heart, you ain't ever supposed to lie Well life ain't nothin' but a cold, hard ride I ain't leavin' till I'm satisfied I cross my heart Yeah I cross my heart Well I cross my heart, pretty, darlin' over you You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  B  E  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
