Verse
[C#]I know I'm big and proud all over, not just on the stage
[C#]my secret self has many sides
[C#]that laugh and crush and sting

[C#]I like it from behind
[C#]round to back
[C#]red to white
[C#]I'm pure inside and silent
Chorus
[C#]I've got a piece of my [B]heart
on the sole of your [A#m]shoe
I've got a little bit of [E]thunder
trapped inside of that [F#]cloud
that [G#]dog in [F#]you spit me [C#]out into the [D#]mississippi

Chorus
[C#]I've got a piece of my [B]heart
on the sole of your [A#m]shoe
