Beat of a Broken Heart
Music & Lyrics by Gabriel Harley
INTRO
|: D . . . | A . G . | D . . . | A . . . :|

VERSE 1
|: D . . . | A . G . | D . . . | A . G . :|
I can't eat, I can't sleep, I only wanna hold you close to me
Don't wanna talk, don't wanna drink, I only want us how we used to be

PRE-CHORUS 1
|: C . . . | G . . . | D . . . | D . . . :| (play 3x)
| C . . . | G . . . | A . . . | . . . . |
Since you've gone I can't hear the music that used to fill me up inside
The songs in my heart, they turn to static in the night, and just one sound's stuck in my mind

CHORUS 1
|: D . . . | A . G . | D . . . | A . G . :|
That's the sound of the beat of a broken heart, That's the sound of the beat of a broken heart,
That's the sound of the beat of a broken heart

VERSE 2
|: D . . . | A . G . | D . . . | A . G . :|
Unbreak my heart, I'd sell my soul, I keep driving past the places we used to go
That old hotel down by the shoals where we spent a rainy weekend in bed alone

PRE-CHORUS 2
|: C . . . | G . . . | D . . . | D . . . :| (play 3x)
| C . . . | G . . . | A . . . | . . . . |
the birds outside are wrapped in silence and the wind moves quiet through the trees
And the bands in the bars have all turned off their amplifiers, and just one rhythm's left for me

CHORUS 2
|: D . . . | A . G . | D . . . | A . G . :|
That's the sound of the beat of a broken heart, That's the sound of the beat of a broken heart,
That's the sound of the beat of a broken heart

SOLO
|: G . . . | D . . . | A . . . | . . . . :| (play 3x)
| G . . . | . . . . | A . . . | . . . . |

CHORUS 3 & 4
|: D . . . | A . G . | D . . . | A . G . :| (play 2x)
That's the sound of the beat of a broken heart, That's the sound of the beat of a broken heart,
That's the sound of the beat of a broken heart

VERSE 4 (slowly)
D . . . | A . . . | G . . . |
I can't eat, I can't sleep, I only want us how we're s'posed to be
