Introdução:
F Bb F
How red is the blood from a broken heart
F C
How rich is the colour that bleeds
Am Gm
Is it scarlet and bright, a sailor's delight
F Eb Bb F
Or heavy the darkness that snaps at its heels
F Bb F
How steady?s the pulse from a broken heart
F C
How certain the rhythm it keeps
Am Gm
Is it even and strong like the strike of a drum
F Eb Bb F
Or does it stagger and lurch with every beat
Solo same as a verse
F Bb F
How deep is the wound I inflicted on you
F C
And the cut that I gave to myself
Am Gm
How long for to heal, for to scar, for to feel
F Eb Bb F
That my body has mended and returned to health
F Bb F
How soon will my thoughts stop turning to you
F C
At the breaking of every day
Am Gm
Before every road, every place that I go
F Eb Bb F
Will no longer whisper, nor cry out your name
Bb C Db Dm G
Ooooh The answers we seek are elusive shadows in a cindery night
Bb Am A Dm
Ooooh Locked up and hidden away
Db
With the heavens and the bookends of time
Bb C Db Dm
Ooooh We know how the heart and its chambers
G
Feed the body and keep it alive
Bb Dm
But no one can say why the broken heart aches
Am Gm
And where it will lead you and I
F Bb F
How red is the blood from a broken heart
F C
How rich is the colour that bleeds
Am Gm
Is it welcome and warm like the first flush of dawn
F Eb Bb F
Or as cold as the tears that fall down your cheek
