La entrada 100 de Retrorockola: Queen of Hearts - Juice Newton (Video, Lyrics & Chords)

Esta canción la he estado escuchando en diversos lugares durante estos días, incluso hoy en la mañana me despertó un vecino teniéndola a todo volumen, algo raro para una canción de 1981 (en especial porque el vecino aún no había nacido cuando salió).

Por eso creo que se merece que la recordemos en esta Retrorockola y volvamos al pasado con esta canción de Juice Newton

"Queen of Hearts" es una canción escrita por Hank DeVito.

La canción apareció en el álbum de 1979 de Dave Edmunds Repeat When Necessary y el sencillo alcanzó el puesto 11 en las listas de popularidad del Reino Unido.

Dos años más tarde, Juice Newton lanzó la canción como un sencillo, alcanzando el puesto #2 en la listas de popularidad de los Estados Unidos. La versión de Newton vendió más de un millón de copias y llegó al top 10 de varios países, incluyendo Canadá y Australia.

La canción apareció originalmente en su álbum de 1981 Juice.

Por su grabación de "Queen of Hearts", Newton obtuvo una nominación al Premio Grammy a la Mejor Interpretación Vocal Femenina - Country en 1982.



Queen of hearts

Juice Newton


D

Midnight, and I'm waiting on the twelve O five

G
Hoping it'll take me just a little further down the line

D

Moonlight, you're just a heartache in disguise
Won't you keep my heart from breaking if it's only for a very short

G
time.

CHORUS:

AGDADG

Playing with the queen of hearts and knowing it ain't really smart,

ADBmGAD
the joker ain't the only foo ooo ool who'll do anything for you

AGDADG

Planning out another line thinking about a life of crime

ADBmGAD
that's what I'll have to do ooo ooo to keep me away from you.


D
2.) Honey, I know it makes you mad

G
why is everybody telling everybody what you have done

D
Baby, I know it makes you sad,

G
when they're handing out the heartaches you know you've got to have some
go to chorus, then to 3rd verse

D
3.) Lovers, I know you've had a few

G
and how you hide beneath the covers and tell them they're the only one

D
Lovers, they know just what I'm going through

G
It's so hard to be a lover when you say you're only in it for fun.

half chorus key change whole chorus lead lick repeat chorus to fade


BAEBEA

Playing with the queen of hearts and knowing it ain't really smart,

BEC#mABE
the joker's ain't the only foo oo ool who'll do anything for you

BAEBEA

Planning out another line thinking about a life of crime

BEC#mABE
that's what I'll have to do oo oo to keep me away from you.

Always On My Mind

I:
D A
Maybe I didn't love you
Bm D G A
Quite as often as I could have
D A
And maybe I didn't treat you
Bm D Em7
Quite as good as I should have

II:
G D
If I made you feel second best
G D Em
Girl, I'm sorry I was blind
A Bm A7 D Em F#m
But you were always on my mind
G A7 D G A
You were always on my mind

(same progression as I)
Maybe I didn't hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
And I guess I never told you
I'm so happy that you're mine

(same progression as II)
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

D A Bm D
Tell me
G D Em G A7
Tell me that your sweet love hasn't died
D A Bm
Give me
D G D Em
Give me one more chance to keep you satisfied
A D
I'll keep you satisfied
