This is my first time posting... it's a pretty easy song and this is the skeleton of it. to the song for any extra accentuations... Broken By Tracy Chapman from the album Let it Rain 4/4 time. Capo II EmYou (022000@1)can close your eyes CAnd (x32010@1)see the picture perfect life G (320003@1) DInside (xx0232@1)of your mind Em (022000@1) CDreaming (x32010@1)only of the days ahead G (320003@1) DWanted (xx0232@1)and wished for more than now Or the days behind EmYou (022000@1)waste your time CThe (x32010@1)picture makes a promise G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1) EmThe (022000@1)flesh lets it be broken CThe (x32010@1)picture makes a promise G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1) EmThe (022000@1)flesh lets it be broken (same chord pattern the entire song) You can never think You can't even stop yourself Before the words have been spoken And you've already said You would give everything And something for nothing Everybody thinks you're joking The picture makes a promise The flesh lets it be broken The picture makes a promise The flesh lets it be broken You want to be the one Made over be your own Before and after And a supermarket Beauty in a bottle queen Who'll one day grace a check-out counter Magazine front cover Though the fine print reads The picture makes a promise The flesh lets it be broken The picture makes a promise The flesh lets it be broken Lets it be broken Lets it be broken Broken Lets it be broken Lets it be broken Broken Broken Your life is never what you wanted Not even halfway normal Just tarnished and soiled When in your reach A framed and frozen moment So far from perfection Not truth or transcendence Will set you free Still you don't believe The picture makes a promise The flesh lets it be broken The picture makes a promise The flesh lets it be broke (End on C)
