Broken Hearted People - Guy Clark
Now bro[C]ken hearted people always seem to drink and
[Em]tryin' to drown those sorrows ain't as easy as you [F]think[G][C]
But li[C]ving with a liar is a hard old way to go
L[Em]aughin' just to keep from crying ain't no way to gr[F]ow old[G]
Chorus
So ta[F]ke me to a barroom [C]driver set me on a s[F]tool[C]
If [F]I can't be her man[C] I'm d[C/B]amned i[Am]f I'll[F] be h[G]er fool[C]
They say that whiske[C]y ain't the best way, but then I ain't too smart
to t[Em]hink I just found out she was lyin' from[F] the [G]start[C]
So if this is not[C]hing but a bad joke lookin' for a laugh
[Em]hold on to your lampshade darlin' cause I'm looking for a hat[F][G]
Chorus
So ge[C]t this taxi movin' cause I got no time to lose
there's no [Em]time to be choosy, any old bar[F] will do[G][C]
cause I'm looki[C]n' to get silly and I'm lookin' to get loose
and if th[Em]at don't get it done darlin', I'll come looking for[F] you[G]
