Heartbroke -- Ricky Skaggs
[Intro]
Em F#m G Bm A (3X) D
D
Now who wouldn't notice the fire in your eyes
A D
Or the bitter direction of impending goodbyes.
D
I'm fallin', I'm folded, I'm welded in place,
A D
At the sight of you standing with streaks down your face.
[Chorus]
Em F#m G Bm A
You got your h e a r t b r o k e, go runnin' from the reason,
Em F#m G Bm A
Got your h e a r t b r o k e, don't give up on believin' in me.
Em F#m G Bm A D
H e a r t b r o k e, who kept me from leavin' with my heartbroke.
D
Well pride when you're rich is a bore if you're lonely,
A D
Sheer madness prevails upon reason to yield.
D
But all is not lost, it is only mistaken,
A D
A small consolation but I know just how you feel.
[Chorus]

Em F#m G Bm A (3X) D

Well nobody said it was goin' to be easy,

We all have our weak sides that need a soft good touchin'

And nobody said that it would not be worth it,
A D
The human conditions continue as such
[Chorus]

Em F#m G Bm A D
H e a r t b r o k e, you kept me from leavin' with my heartbroke.

You got your heartbroke
