The King of Broken Hearts

G Cm They know he'll understand F Bb Eb Eb Bb That's just the way it goes. Eb The king of broken hearts doesn't know he's a king Bb He's trying to forget other things G Cm Like some ol' chilly scenes F Bb Eb Eb Bb He's walking through alone. F CHORUS: He talks to angels and the stars start to spin Bb He thinks of troubles that he's gotten in C He recalls how his heart got broken F And how it's still that way. Eb The king of broken hearts is so sad and wise Bb He can smile while he's crying inside G Cm We know he'll be brave tonight F Bb Eb Eb Bb 'Cause he's the king of broken hearts. SOLO (Eb Bb G Cm F Bb) CHORUS Eb The king of broken hearts thinks that he's an old fool Bb He's a little bit like me and you G Cm So what's a king like that supposed to do F D With all that blue time G Cm We know he'll be brave tonight F Eb 'Cause he's the king of broken hearts Eb Bb He's the king of broken hearts. Ok. And here are the chords with a capo at the third fret: Eb=C Bb=G G=E Cm=Am F=D D=B It's also very cool, I think, to walk down from Bb to G (or from G to E if you are using the capo). Also, if you are not using the capo, I find it better to finger the chords like: Eb:x65343 Bb:688766 G:355433 Cm:x35543 F:133211 D;x5777x as I think they tend to blend a little better with the vocals. -Roberto Barbieri (barbieri@unive.it)
