Album: David Ball (1998)

E
If you're lost, and you're alone  
         A         E
Let me sing you a song  
                                 B
You're not the only lonely one tonight  
       E
I can sympathize with you  
        A                  E
I know what you're goin' through  
            A              E     B      E
I've been walkin' in your shoes all my life.

I was born with a broken heart 
         A                   E
Born to lose right from the start  
           B
Raised on hand-me-down blues  
              A             E
That's why I sing the way I do  
          
Sad six string and a jukebox voice  
          A               E
I'm the lonely people's choice  
       B        
I was made to play the part  
       A            B     E 
I was born with a broken heart. 
  
E
If the sun, should ever shine, 
         A                        E
In your life, well friend that's fine  
                                                         B
I hope you leave behind these troubled times that we've shared 
        E
Oh but don't look back for me  
           A              E
I'm where I'm supposed to be
             A                E      B       E
As long as there's a lonely street, I'll be there.  
  
E
I was born with a broken heart 
         A                   E
Born to lose right from the start  
           B           
Raised on hand-me-down blues  
              A             E
That's why I sing the way I do  
          
Sad six string and a jukebox voice  
          A               E
I'm the lonely people's choice  
       B        
I was made to play the part  
       A            B     E 
I was born with a broken heart. 


           B
Yes I was made to play the part  
       A            B     E
I was born with a broken heart.
