Broken Wings
Words & Music by Chris de Burgh
Intro: E - F#m - E/G# - A - E - F#m7/B - E - Esus
E F#m E/G# A
These broken wings can take me no further
E B A E Esus
I'm lost, and out at sea,
E F#m E/G#
I thought these wings would hold me forever
E B A G#
And on to eternity,
A E/G# A E
And far away I can hear your voice,
A E/G# Bsus
I can hear it in the silence of the morning,
B E F#m E/G# A
But these broken wings have let me down
E/G# F#m F#m7/B E Esus - E - Esus
They can�t even carry me home.
In broken dreams that keep me from sleeping
I remember all the things I said,
Well I've broken all the promises
I said I would be keeping,
They're gone, like leaves they fell,
For it's so hard when you�re far away,
All I needed was a shoulder I could cry on,
Now these broken dreams have woken me,
My love, will you carry me home.
E Esus B
Or will you treat me like some traveller
A E/G# E
On a dark and lonely road,
F#m E/G# A E/G# F#m7 B
Who sees a light and a woman who will give him love,
E F#m
Oh and just when she reaches the part
E/G# A
When she's supposed to comfort his broken heart
E F#m B A - E/G# - F#m
She turns away, and sends him travelling on, on.
Oh when I left I believed that nothing would go wrong
I thought the whole world would be waiting for my story,
Take me back, my love, I need you now,
Come back and carry me home,
E D C#m A
Take me back and heal these broken wings,
F#m F#m7/B E F#m E/G# A - E - B - A - E
Come back and carry me home.
