C
Sherry had a pawn shop band of gold
A sink full of dishes and a love grown cold
F G
Along came a boy pretty as the devil
C Em Am
She took his hand the whole thing unravelled
F G
There's no turnin' round
C
It's broke down
C
Billy took the ring jammed it in his pocket
Drove down town and tried to hock it
F G
Down at the bottom of Lake Ponchartrain
C Em Am
There's a love not carved inside a wedding ring
F G
Broke down cracked and shattered
C Em Am
Left in pieces like it never even mattered
F G
Broke down torn and frayed
C Em Am
Ain't nothin' left you could give away
F G
There's no turnin' round
C
It's broke down
F G
Ain't no tellin where love goes
C Em Am
Maybe down where the black river flows
F G
Won't be comin' back round
C
It's broke down
C
Baby in the back seat and another on the way
Sherry thinks of Billy at the end of every day
F G
Spends her nights waiting for real life to start
C Em Am
Listening to the sound of her double crossed heart
F G
Broke down cracked and shattered
C Em Am
Left in pieces like it never even mattered
F G
There's no turnin' round
C
It's broke down
C
On the other side of town two lovers lie still
Cigarette smokin' on a window sill
F G
There's a picture locked up in an old suitcase
C Em Am
Billy closes his eyes but he still sees her face
F G
Broke down cracked and shattered
C Em Am
Left in pieces like it never even mattered
F G
Broke down torn and frayed
C Em Am
Ain't nothin' left you could give away
F G
There's no turnin' round
C
It's broke down
Broke down
