[Verse]
F
The king of broken hearts doesn't ask much from his friends
C A
And he has quite a few of them
Dm G
They know he will understand
C F G C
That's just the way it goes
F
The king of broken hearts doesn't know he's a king
C A
He's trying to forget other things
Dm G
Like some old chilly scenes
C F G C
He's walking through alone
[Chorus]
G
He talks to angels and the stars start to spin
C
He thinks of troubles that he's gotten in
D7
He recalls how his heart got broken
G
And how it's still that way
[Verse]
F
The king of broken hearts is so sad and wise
C A
He can smile while he's crying inside
Dm G
We know he'll be brave tonight
C F G C
Cause he's the king of broken hearts
[Instrumental]
F C A Dm G C F G C
[Chorus]
G
He talks to angels and the stars start to spin
C
He thinks of troubles that he's gotten in
D7
He recalls how his heart got broken
G
And how it's still that way
[Coda]
F
The king of broken hearts thinks that he's no fool
C A
He's a little bit like me and you
Dm G
So what's a king like that supposed to do
E A
With all that blue time
Dm G
We know he'll be brave tonight
G F
Cause he's the king of broken hearts
F C F G C
He's the king of broken hearts
