Chords for Halestorm – Heart of Novocaine (Acoustic Performance)

We're going to play a song called Heart of Novocaine
off our album, Vicious.
And this song is special to me because I
was going through what I'm writing about exactly
at the time that we were recording it.
You know, stuff in my head, have to get it out, power of music.
And ended up writing this song.
And I don't even know where it came from.
It just kind of came out.
And that rarely ever happens.
So I knew it was special.
And ended up going to the studio the next day,
showing it to the guys.
And I kind of had it tinkering on piano.
And the guys were like, oh, what if we do it in acoustic?
You know, it would sound so beautiful.
And we just had so much fun adding in percussion.
And there's a bass solo.
And all these fun things that we ended up doing.
Yeah, scissors.
_ For those of you who are listening,
those are actually scissors on the record.
Yeah, we don't have those sticky scissors with us.
So we're going to have to deal.
But anyway, this is one of my favorite songs on the record.
And this is called Heart of Novocaine. _ _ _
