A broken heart be lovely
E B
Broken on the ground
B
A knife stuck in the ribs of me
C# E
Would be better be found
B
Hanging tree blowing gently
E
A noose would be ignored
B B/A# B/G# B/F#
Then to stand upon the receiving end
E B
Of the right hand of the Lord
F# C#
Like a thirsty cowboy
E B
In a lake his tongue does rest
F# C#
Jumps in and he cannot swim
E
And drowns himself to death
F# C#
Or a frozen mountaineer
E
He chugs up to a stop
B B/A# B/G# B/F#
Catching his boot heel in a rock
E
Two miles from the top
B E
F# C#
An Olympic super swimmer
E B
Whose belly doesn't flop
F# C#
A super racecar driver
E B
Whose pit, it can't be stopped
F# C#
A honey dripping hipster

Whose bee cannot be bopped
B B/A# B/G# B/F#
Better to be rolled in oats
E B
Than from the roll be dropped

A broken heart would satisfy
E B
Broken in a mess
B
A severed eye would gratify
C# E
My soul, I must confess
B
I'd rather have no eyes at all
E
Be blind upon the floor
B B/A# B/G# B/F#
Then to stand upon the receiving end
E B
Of the right hand of the Lord
B B/A# B/G# B/F#
Then to stand upon the receiving end
E B
Of the right hand of the Lord
