Heart Attack Tab

   
This rendition of "Heart Attack" is based on the "Official Video" from VEVO that I 
watched, which is
currently available on YouTube. I have been educated in music theory and ear 
training. I thought it might
be fun to apply my skills to pop music. This is one of many songs I've analyzed.

I would firstly like to point out the Cm7 chord and Fm/Bb. Just in case you didn't 
know already, Fm/Bb
simply means that you play all of the notes of an F minor chord, and you add a B 
flat as the bass note. I
carefully listened to song, and Cm7 seems to be a more appropriate match for the 
chord played in the Intro
and Background Lick. I suppose it could be substituted with an Eb chord to be 
consistent. However, the
notes played in both of those parts are C, Eb, G, and Bb, and those are the notes 
that make up a Cm7 chord.


W = Whole Note
H = Half Note
Q = Quarter Note
E = Eighth Note
S = Sixteenth Note
() = Optional Note in Parentheses

Db                     Ab               Eb
   Never break a sweat for the other guys
                           Fm          Db
   When you come around, I get paralyzed
                        Ab         Eb
   And every time I try to be myself
                      Fm                Db
   It comes out wrong like a cry for help

   It's just not fair
                       Fm              Db
   Pain’s more trouble than love is worth
          Ab    Eb
   I gasp for air
                     Fm
   It feels so good, but you know it hurts
