Alkaline Trio – Broken Wing (Guitar)

C                    G          
It ain't hard to get lost, 

         D                 Am
When you forget, where you come from.

          C                               G     
Turn that dial to the right and push that pedal down.

              D
Don't say goodbye,

             C
Just for the drive, 

      G       D
Along for the ride.

G                                 D
It would be real nice just to fly away,

           Em
And escape everything.

           C
But little bird,

                              G
Looks like you've got a broken wing.

                D                          Em
Now anything so easy, it might not make you weak.

       C
But it sure won't make me believe.

     C                                  G
It's hell you say and it gets worse you know.

              D                                       Am
How many more days am I gonna wake up when there's no place I wanna go?

     C                                          G
That sunshine's really gonna kill us all why is everyday so cold?

       D                      C
Why is everything, so fucking cold,

         G      D
And never melts away. 

G                                 D
It would be real nice just to fly away,

           Em
And escape everything.

           C
But little bird,

                              G

                D                          Em

       C
But it sure won't make me believe.

Am         C           G
That's the top of your lungs, and the bottom of your heart.  

Am          C           G
Is that the top of your lungs, Is that the bottom of your heart. 

Am  Bm     C       D          G   D
Is that as deep as your heart goes? 

G                            D  
I understand the things that keep you up,

                          Em
And I know that you still feel. 

                              C
And I know that your heart is hemorrhaging, 

                       G
And needs some time to heal. 

                            D
Now the traffic lights there on your street, 

                     Em
Flash yellow all the time,

                       C                                      Bm
And the mirror in your bathroom it looks cracked in the wrong light  

             C
But walk out through your threshold,

G                      D                C
Through your lungs and move on down the stairs.

Em          D                    C               G
And let the things you love come back to you in time

              Am   D
we'll all get there 

G                                 D
It would be real nice just to fly away,

           Em
And escape everything.

           C
