INTRO :   D  - D7  -  A


VERSE ONE

A                            E7      A   
You will meet many just like me....up-on lifes busy street.
                           D 
with shoulders stooped and heads bowed low
               A
and eyes that stare in defeat.
                               A7   D
For souls that live within the past...where sorrow plays all parts,
        A                       E7         A
for a living death is all thats left...for men with brokens hearts.


VERSE TWO
 
A                           E7     A
You have no right to be the judge,...to critisize and condemn.
                       D
Just think but for the grace of God
            A
it would be you instead of him.
                      A7                     D
One careless step, a thoughtless deed...and then the misery starts 
        A                         E7            A
and to those who weep death comes cheap,..these men with broken hearts.
 

VERSE THREE

A                    E7                        A
Humble you should be ...when they come passing by, 
                                     D
for its written that the greatest of men 
 A
...never get to big to cry.
                   A7            D
Some lose faith in love and life...when sorrow shoots her darts, 
 A                    E7                 A
...with hope all gone,...they walk alone...these men with broken hearts.


VERSE FOUR

 A                                E7              A
You've never walked in that man's shoes...or saw things through his eyes,
                                   D
or stood and watched with helpless hands
           A
while the heart inside you dies.
                  A7                 D
Some were porpers,...some were kings,..some were masters of the arts, 
A                            E7                    A
..but in their shame they're all the same,...these men with broken hearts.


VERSE FIVE

 A                       E7              A
Life sometimes can be so cruel....that a heart will pray for death.
D
God why must these living dead
                          A
know pain with every brea-th... 
                                    A7                   D
So help your brother along the road,..no matter where he starts!
                  A       E7            A        D               A
For the God that made you,made them too....These men with broken hearts!
