1. The king of broken hearts doesn't ask much from his friends 
              C                   Am 
   And he has quite a few of them 
                     Dm         G 
   They know he will understand 
                           C     F G C

2. The king of broken hearts doesn't know he's a king 
                 C                    Am 
   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 
 
                                    F 
3. The king of broken hearts is so sad and wise 
                     C                   Am 
   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

                              Dm             G 
   So what's a king like that supposed to do 
                     E      Am
