          Bm                    G              D 
When you left here this morning,  you were a broken bird 
                    Bm                G 
You said you can't turn out the fire 
                      D 
You can't turn out a fire 
                  Bm 
Your senses were widened 
                G           D                  A 
Your smile was hiding what you want nobody to see 
        Em                G 
Broken bird, now you're free 

          Bm                        G 
When you called from the pay phone 
            D 
You were a paper doll 
                 Bm               G 
Said I couldn't tear you up easy 
                D                       A 
As weak as you were and as strong as I was 

                 Bm 
You think I'm strong, girl 
                 G 
I think you're wrong, girl 
          D                 A 
It's not easy to give you away 
           Em           A 
Still you call just to say 

                       G                      D 
Just to say you were broken (just a terrible pair of wings) 
          Em                      Bm 
You were broken (just a terrible pair of wings) 
           G D 
You were broken 
             A 
You were a broken bird 

           Bm                   G 
Yeah, you knew when you met me 
              D 
That I was a razor blade 
          Bm                    G 
In these halls of bad memories 
                 D                         A 
I'll do what it takes just to cut 'em all loose 
                       Bm 
'Cause that's where I found you 
                 G 
That's where I found you 
      D                              A 
To a rocket headed straight for the moon 
         Em         A 
Where I will meet you soon 

                        G                      D 
I could tell you were broken (just a terrible pair of wings) 
          Em                      Bm 
You were broken (just a terrible pair of wings) 
           G D 
You were broken 
             A 
You were a broken bird 

                          Em  -  A 
And you asked me for the world 
                        D 
All I gave you was the falling sky 
                            Em  -  A 
Yeah, you asked me for the world 
                    D 
All you needed as place to fly 
                            Em  -  D  -  A 
Yeah, you asked me for the world 

And I couldn't give you the world
