Eric Clapton – Broken Hearted (Guitar)

B     G#m7     C#m     Amaj7
When the wind blows down this hard,

B     G#m7     A       Amaj7
Many a bond is broken.

B     G#m7     C#m     Amaj7
See the water lie on the ground

B     G#m7     A       Amaj7
From where the heavens opened.

E     A         F#m     B
Lord, how will you get through this night

G#m7  C#m       F#m     B
With your dreams departed?

B     G#m7      C#m     Amaj7
And who alone will comfort you?

B     G#m7      A       Amaj7
Only the broken hearted.

B     G#m7      C#m     Amaj7
So you've gone beyond your means,

B     G#m7      A       Amaj7
Every wound is open,

B     G#m7      C#m     Amaj7
Your best laid plans are out of reach,

B     G#m7      A       Amaj7
And all your fears unspoken.

E     A         F#m     B
Lord, how will you get through this night

G#m7  C#m       F#m     B
With your dreams departed?

B     G#m7      C#m     Amaj7
And who alone will comfort you?

B     G#m7      A       Amaj7
Only the broken hearted.

F#             G#m
Sweet revenge is spoken then;

A              C#m
In the twilight it is gone.

F#             B  B/A
To living lies with no escape,

G#m            A
Lord, I would rather be alone.

B     G#m7      C#m     Amaj7
I press my fingers to the wood

B     G#m7      A       Amaj7
To tell you of my dreaming,

B     G#m7      C#m     Amaj7
To sing you songs from olden times,

B     G#m7      A       Amaj7
To keep the love light gleaming.

E     A         F#m     B
'Cause there's a place where we can go,

G#m7  C#m       F#m     B
Where we will not be parted.

B     G#m7      C#m     Amaj7
And who alone will enter there?

B     G#m7      A       Amaj7
Only the broken hearted.
