(verse 1) 
 
           B 
She was touching up her make up I was standing next in line, 
B 
Couldn't help but notice neath those powder room lights, 
            E                           
There was china red outlined in black on the left side of her shoulder, 
          B 
In plain view 
A                       E                               B                     
I just had to ask hey, what's with that half a heart tattoo, 
 
 
 
(verse 2) 
             B  
She glanced at me through the mirror and just started to laugh, 
B      
She said I know this looks funny but there is another half, 
           E7    
And it's china red outlined in black on the right side of his shoulder, 
        B  
Last I knew, 
A                              E                           B 
Yeah somewhere out there is a match to this half a heart tattoo, 

      A                 D                  B 
Well last I heard some red head caught his eye in New Orleans, 
      A                               B 
and before it was a blonde in Baton Rouge, 
   A                         D                 B 
I know there are at least a dozen gals out sporting one of these, 
   A                        F#   
Thinking they are the only fool,  
           A           E              B  
That he's left with a half a heart tattoo,
 
 
 
 
 
(verse 3) 
       B 
Well girl you got my sympathy I knew a guy like that, 
B 
I said Well you ain't gonna believe this then I pulled my jacket back, 
            E7 
Yeah it's china red outlined in black on the left side of my shoulder, 
              B 
Still fairly new yeah, 
A                                    E                        B  
I guess there's just a whole mess of us with a half a heart tattoo, 
 
 
(chorus) 
           A                D                   B 
Well the last I heard he'd moved in with some dancer from L.A. 
         A                                B 
But I'm bettin that won't last a week or two, 
           A              D                  B  
He loves long enough to leave his mark and then he's on his way, 
 A                              F# 
He's so good they never have a clue,  
              A                  E       B  
til they're stuck with a half a heart tattoo, 
      A                                       F#   
So ladies make sure that guy standing next to you, 
        A          E             B
