When the Spell is Broken, from Across a Crowded Room
(may be played with low E string tuned to D; if so use low D instead of fourth string most places in the tab)
Dm When the spell is broken When the spell is broken Am How you ever gonna keep enough Gm You cant cry if you dont know how. Dm When the spell is broken When the spell is broken Am All the joy is gone from her face Gm Welcome back to the human race AmBb How long can the flame of love remain CBb When you curse and you fight CBb And never see the light C Or hear a word spoken Dm When the spell is broken When the spell is broken
(2nd verse)
When the spell is broken All your magic and your ways and schemes All your lies come and tear at your dreams When the Spell is broken When the Spell is broken
Are you handing her that same old line It's just straws in the wind this time When Love has died, there's none left starry eyed No kiss and no tears No farewell souveniers, not even a token When the Spell is broken
(3rd verse) (solo) Don't swear your heart From the very start Love letters you wrote Get pushed back down your throat And leave you choking When the Spell is broken

NOTE: I believe I found a few more chords and reordered the words a bit, but in general this is a rip off of the previous version. (from Across a Crowded Room, 1985) (sent by Harlan at [email protected])
