Broken Places

G

[Verse 1]
                 Em
Did you know me
          C
Long ago
                G           D
Were we close before the sorrow?
Bm                            C
If you thought of leaving any traces
Am                          D              G
I'll be sifting through the broken places


[Verse 2]
                Em
Did I know you
                  C
Once upon a time
                 G           D
You dreamed of me and now I'm
Bm                                 C
Searching for myself in strangers' faces
Am                    D               G
Stumbling onto further broken places


[Verse 3]
                  Em
She turns purple
           C
Am I blue
                G       D
Can't she fathom what I do
Bm                          C
Trying to get in her better graces
Am                      D              G
Touching her in all the broken places


[Verse 4]
             Em
I get crazy
              C
Not sure why
              G      D
Solace beckons until I
Bm                           C
Go tearing off again on wild chases
Am                    D               G
Crashing into same old broken places


[Verse 5]
               Em
I am young so
              C
Who's to say
             G        D
But for now I have no way
   Bm                             C
Of knowing how much healing time erases
Am                     D               G
Certain of these secret broken places


[Verse 6]
                  Em
Can't there be a
                 C
Little breather?
             G              D
Our love is a real seether
Bm                                    C
Two sore hearts, we plead our hapless cases
Am                   D              G
Rendezvousing at the broken places


[Verse 7]
                Em
I love you for
             C
All of this
                  G     D
Struggling towards happiness
Bm                                  C
When the chips are down we play our aces
Am                D               G
Hiding them in our broken places
