[Verse]
G
Jingle, jangle, pocketful of metal
C
Johnny’s in the basement, hooking up the kettle
C G Em C
Thinking to himself, “I guess I gotta settle for less”
D
He’s a mess
G
Jenny, Jenny, a plastic bag of pennies
C
Roll ‘em in brown paper, turn ‘em into twenty
C G Em C
Walking to the bank, she’s knocking, “Is there anybody here?
D
Have I made myself clear?”
[Chorus]
G
I’m broke, I know I’m broke
C
But I’m not broken
G
I’m broke, I know I’m broke
C
But I’m not broken
[Verse]
G
Charlene, Charlene, everybody’s darling
G C
High on something heavy, she’s flying like a starling
C G Em C
Coming down the stairs, she’s tripping through a chemistry class
D
Life’s a blast
G
Billy’s down from Sydney and, damn, he’s looking handsome
G C
Stumbling down Portland, holding it for ransom
C G Em C
If you got a loonie, he’ll tell you the dirtiest joke
D
“Hey man, can I bum a smoke?”
[Chorus]

I’m broke, I know I’m broke

But I’m not broken

I’m broke, I know I’m broke

I’m broke, I know I’m broke

You never see the wound, you only see the scar

Were we landing on the moon or standing at the bar?
Bm C D
It’s four in the morning, I don’t know where I am or who you are
G C G C
[Verse]
G
Last chance landlord, renting out a closet
G C
Picking up the weekly, making the deposit

Walking from the bank while we’re headed for the National Exchange

Ahh This world is strange

broke, I know I’m broke
