From: Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Black Moon
Transcription by: Rainer Boettchers (boettchers.pad@sni.de)
Paderborn/Germany, July 1996
Tuning: EADGBE (Standard)
Comments: Again a .CRD file, again a simple transcription
(... beg your pardon, Greg ...). Again I have tried
to preserve the timing for the chord changes.
Chords used here: Emaj 022100
Esus4 022200
B 224442
Em9 022000
F#min 244222
G 320003
A x02220
Bm9 x24432
Other chords shapes may be used instead. Listen to
the original song to find the bits and pieces.
And a 12string guitar is the best guitar for this song.

*** Intro:
*** Main theme:
She looked at me across the room
Emerging from a silk cocoon
Alone beneath Venetian chandeliers
Against the moon her body rocks
Her eyes were cunning like a fox
The wings of passion fly on all frontiers
*** Refrain:
>From this fire there's no returning
No escape your heart is burning
Love becomes a lethal weapon
No one is too smart
E ...
In affairs of the heart ...
E ...
In affairs of the heart
*** Main theme:
Now upon the bridge she waits
Dreaming of our tangled fates
Her face was like a ghost with eyes of jade
(I) fell just like a falling star
A victim of this coup d'etat
I could not see behind this masquerade
*** Refrain:
>From this fire there's no returning
No escape your heart is burning
Love becomes a lethal weapon
(Be) careful where you start
E ...
In affairs of the heart ...
E ...
In affairs of the heart ...
... ...
In affairs of the heart
... ...
Sometimes I think I'll never learn
... ...
Were all those promises in vain
Bm9 ...
Do the wings of fire still remain
...
E ...
Esus4 ...
E ...
*** Main theme:
All is fair in love and war
The tender draw the shortest straw
Like autumn leaves they vanish in the air
Is this the time we say goodbye
I call her room there's no reply
Tonight we end this fleeting love affair
*** Refrain:
>From this fire there's no returning
No escape your heart is burning
Love becomes a lethal weapon
Sharper than a dart
E ...
In affairs of the heart ...
E ...
In affairs of the heart
E ...
In affairs of the heart ...
...
E ...
E ...
In affairs of the heart ...
(fade out) ...
E ...
Esus4 ...
E ...
Esus4.
