[Intro]GEm7
The strings on this guitar are
Cadd9D
like the laces on my broken heart
[Verse 1]GEm7
Let’s replace the past and move
Cadd9D
forward together but we can
GEm7
only live our song if both
Cadd9D
of us play our parts
GEm7
Take it slow and write the words of
Cadd9DG
a life worth living. Just like the
Em7
sound of the chords when band plays
D
on a cool summer evening.
[Hook]GEm7
The strings on this guitar are like
Cadd9D
the laces on my broken heart.
[Verse 2]GEm7
Listen to me and I’ll listen to you —
Cadd9D
we can get it right this time baby.
GEm7
It takes two to thrive in harmony,
Cadd9DG
so hold my hand—we can dance forever
Em7Cadd9
but not if your heart says maybe.
GEm7
The strings on this guitar are like
Cadd9D
the laces on my broken heart.

life that can’t be undone!
[Hook]GEm7
The strings on this guitar are
Cadd9D
like the laces on my broken heart.
How to play Heart Strap: key, chords and progression
These are the chords for Heart Strap by Zack Moss on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard
Heart Strap by Zack Moss is written in G major (one sharp: F♯) and moves through 4 chords: G, Em7, Cadd9 and D.
Listen for G – Em7 – Cadd9 – D (I – vi7 – IVadd9 – V in G major), the classic 1950s “doo-wop” progression: the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is doh – lah – fah – soh. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.
Beginner-friendly: every chord is an open chord on guitar, so you can play it without a capo or barre chords.
