stand And if you tell my heart my achy breaky heart A He might blow up and kill this man ooooooooooooo INSTRUMENTAL A E A E VERSE 2 A You can tell your ma I moved to Arkansas E Or you can tell your dog to bite my leg Or tell your brother Cliff who?s fist can tell my lip A He never really liked me anyway A Or tell your aunt Louise tell anything you please E Myself already knows I'm not ok Or you can tell my eye to watch out for my mind A It might be walkin' out on me today CHORUS A Don't tell my heart my achy breaky heart E I just don't think he'd under -
