What's a Broken Heart Patty Loveless
WHAT'S A BROKEN HEART
(by Don Phrimmer & George Teren)
(performed by Patty Loveless)
-----------------------------
[The recording of this song is in G#; I play the acoustic guitar intro
in either D or C, and use a capo at the 6th or 8th fret. The chords
I've written here are in D, but if you just want the chords, it would
probably be easier to play it in G and use a capo on the 1st fret.]
[Don't worry too much about the F#m13; just play it as F#m, if you're
strumming chords. I called it a thirteenth because it has lots of
hammer-ons and pull-offs that add up to a lot of different notes.]
[Eacb cbord is balf a measure.]
[Asus2] [intro;Bm] see[Bm9] tab [F#m]at en[F#m13]d] [G] [G(9)] [D] [G]
[Asus2]What's a broken [Bm]heart, [Bm9]it ain't no big d[F#m]eal
[F#m13]It's not what I [G]have, it's [G(9)]only what I [Asus4]feel
[Asus2]I should laugh it [Bm]off, [Bm9]I should never [F#m]cry
[F#m13]It's not meant to [G]live [G] or d[F#sus4]ie by[F#]
[G]Once I le[G]arn to l[C#/G#]et him g[C#/G#]o, the he[D/A]aling h[F#/A#]as to st[Bm]art
It's [Bm]temporary [Em]pain, I'll [F#m]live to love a[G]gain
So [A]what's a broken[Bm] heart[Bm9] [F#m] [F#m13] [Em] [F#m] [G] [(A)]
I just have to stop, and look at who I am
I was just a fool, he was just a man
I can walk away, never looking back
All his tender lies are hard facts
Compared to those who have no hope, their lives so cold and hard
All my misery is a raindrop in the sea
Yeah, what's a broken heart
[A]What's a broken[Bm] heart[Bm9] [F#m] [F#m13] [G] [G] [F#] [F#]
With faith and time, I know I'll find my world is not that dark
It's temporary pain, I'll live to love again
So [A]what's a broken[Bm] heart[Bm9] [F#m] [F#m13] [Em] [F#m] [G] [(A)]

What's a broken heart
This is the intro; the verse is very similar. The first section of tab
is in D, the second is in C; play whichever you want.
