[Verse 1]

Her story shocked this whole town

Just like a burning house and how she made it out

Never says a thing about the scars

Looks like barb wire left tattoo's on her heart

I'm just her lover and her friend
G A
I want to see how this story ends
[Chorus]
D Bm
She should be broken, broken
G A
With promises and dreams that girl is still hopin
Em
She's got fire in her eyes

That's how she survived

Most days I just want to make her smile

She's not broken, no

She's not broken

There were blood stains on that broken window pane
G Em
She escaped one night through the thunder and the rain
D F#m
He was knocked out from the whiskey

Distracted by those needles in his veins

She's been hurt so much, most would have given up
G A
At times she thought there was no such thing as love
[Chorus]

She should be broken, broken
G A
With promises and dreams that girl is still hopin

She's not broken, no

She's not broken

So I help put her back together

One day at a time
Em D G A B
Makin sure I never have to see her cry
