Verse 1
(G major) (C major) The (G major) nameless and the faceless
and the infinite places
That (C major) hands reaching out are denied
Cause the (G major) night tends to swallow
the meek and the hollow
Liv (C major) ing on burnt, borrowed time
And the (E minor) feeling's resounding
When (G major) you're (C major) taking a pounding
And you (A minor) tell yourself you (G major) don't care (C major)
And in (E minor) side the museum
And the (C major) lost mausoleum
Some (A minor) lives just (G major) can't be repaired (D major)
And (C major) the pieces line (G major) these streets
With (C major) bloodshed an (E minor) d tokens
To (A minor) say a pray (G major) er tonight
(C major) for the broken (G major) (C major)
Old (G major) hags and dime bags,
lost so cold day drags,
pick (C major) yourself up off the floor
And there's (G major) bending and breaking
and the endless forsaking
This (C major) path that you've traveled before
Man, (E minor) I know for certain
when (C major) God raised the curtain
I (A minor) wasn't prepared (G major) for this (C major) role
And there's (E minor) knowing and learning
and the (C major) one light of burning
In the (A minor) cool dark (G major) night of the (D major) soul
And (C major) the gypsies and ma (G major) gicians
Said (C major) the gods were all awoken (E minor)
By (A minor) the roar (G major) of the lost (C major)
and the broken (G major)
Reflec (B flat major) tion so telling
and the feelings I'm quelling
I'm (C major) walking a mile in your shoes
And the face (B flat major) that you don't
recognize
Pontificate or philosophize
But (A minor) deep down you know it's a (D major) ruse (G major) (C major)
She comes (G major) from a castle
Where the winds cannot lasso
The (C major) moons that exist (E minor) in (C major) her skies
Babe, forever (G major) talk to me
I swore you once knew me
I see (C major) my regret in your eyes
An (E minor) d you spoke like a witness
Of (D major) (C major) love and forgiveness
May (A minor) be it's just (G major) noise (C major) from words
With your (E minor) sweet misdirection
An (D major) d your (C major) songs of rejection
You (A minor) said you know it's
(G major) real (D major) when it hurts (C major)
So go ahead and walk (G major) away
(C major) Cause this time I ain't (E minor) joking
(A minor) Remember me (G major) tonight
(C major) among the broken (G major)
(C major) From the mountains to the (G major) rooftops (D major)
(C major) All the muskets all out (E minor) smoking
Say (A minor) a pray (G major) er to
night (C major) for the broken (G major)
For the broken (C major)
Say a prayer tonight (G major)
Say a prayer tonight (C major) you
Broken
