bridegroom
Repeat Intro Riff:
And what did h[C]e do to de[Dm]serve
This [Am]whore of a wife who [C]parades her [CM9]disgrace to his [F]face now
When he [Am]loved her and gave up his [C]life in more [CM9]ways than she [F]knows how
And [G]all I can s[G]ay is that
Chorus:
[C]Love is a terrible [Am]art, it?s a hook in the [Dm]heart
That can drag you on [G]broken glass
And as you [C]protest the shards in your [Am]flesh
Dm G ?Am
The hook tears out your chest until you?re just a broken mess
Verse:
Where is [C]God in this [Dm]rot?
De[Am]praved she commits the most [C]heinous of [CM9]sins and breaks her [F]vows
But he [Am]loves her despite all the [C]crimes she [CM9]devises in his [F]house
Where is [C]God? I?ve been [Dm]taught
That He?s [Am]close to the broken, it's [C]true I have [CM9]spoken with [F]Him some
When I [Am]look in my brother's eyes [C]I can see [CM9]where his love [F]comes from
And [G]all he can [G]say is that
Chorus:
[C]Love is a terrible [Am]art, it?s a hook in the [Dm]heart
That can drag you on [G]broken glass
And as you [C]protest the shards in your [Am]flesh
The hook tears out your [Dm]chest until you?re just a [G]broken mess
Bridge:
But [F]she has mercy[G] on her lover and [C]does not bleed him dry
A [F]credit to his [C]self control if it were [G]me that monster would probably die
Chorus 2:
[C]Love is a beautiful [Am]thing, she can make your heart [Dm]sing
When you?re [G]walking on broken glass
She will open your [C]eyes, make your heart feel [Am]alive
Point you toward the [Dm]sunrise
Help you leave all this [G]broken mess behind
Outro: 4x
[F]Love [G]is a beautiful [Em]thing
[Dm]Will you leave this [C]broken mess behind[G]?
