How The Heart Approaches What It Yearns Chords & Lyrics Artist: Paul Simon

      |E   |
In the blue light 
 
      |           |   E9|
Of the Belvedere Motel 
 
A                 |E         |     |  |
  Wondering as the television burns 
 
B7                |                |E     |
   How the heart approaches what it yearns 
 
 
    |  |
In a fe-ver
 
    |                 |     E9
I distinctly hear your voice 
 
|A             |E                 |     |  |
Emerging from a dream, the dream returns 
 
B7                |                |E     |E7 |
   How the heart approaches what it yearns 
 
 
Gbmaj7    Gb/F       |Bbm7      Bbm6|
After the rain on the Interstate 
 
Cm7-5      Cdim          |Bbm7
Headlights slide past the moon 
 
 |Ebm7-5             |
A bone-weary traveler 
 
Dbmaj7                  |Gbmaj7 |
Waits by the side of the road 
 
Gbm6                  |B7 |
     Where's he going? 
 
 
INSTRUMENTAL
 
E |  |  | E9|A |E |  |  |B7 |  |E |E7
 
 
 |Gbmaj7       Gb/F        |Bbm7     Bbm6
I dream we are lying on the top of a hill 
 
   |Cm7-5      Cdim          |Bbm7
And headlights slide past the moon 
 
 |Ebm7-5
I roll in your arms 
 
        |Dbmaj7                  |Gbmaj7 |
And your voice is the heat of the night 
 
Gbm6            |
     I'm on fire 
 
 
B7     |E    |
   In a phone booth 
 
       |             |     E9
In some local bar and grill 
 
 |A                 |E             |     |  |
Rehearsing what I'll say, my coin returns 
 
B7                |                |E     |  |
   How the heart approaches what it yearns 
 
B7                |                |E     |  |
   How the heart approaches what it yearns
