              Shape of my Heart - Sting

Album: Ten Summoner's Tales
Artist: Sting and Dominic Miller
Tabbed by: Joel C.
Email: jcboxfr AT yahoo DOT fr

This is the transcription of an acoustic version of Shape of my Heart 
performed by Sting and Dominic Miller.
You can find the video on Youtube on Newplayrock's channel.

One very important thing: Dominic Miller play some of the bass notes 
slightly before the beat, like a rake or a syncopation.
I marked those bass notes with a sign ^
It really add some dimension to the guitar part.
Also, you may have to work a bit on stretching your fingers on this one :-)

Lyrics:

Shape of my Heart

He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn't play for the money he wins
He doesn't play for respect
He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden laws of a probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart

He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart

And if I told you that I loved you
You'd maybe think there's something wrong
I'm not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one
Those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who fear are lost

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart
