Key Of C
                                     F
1. The king of broken hearts doesn't ask much from his friends
              C                   A
   And he has quite a few of them
                     Dm         G
   They know he will understand
                           C     F-G-C
   That's just the way it goes

                                     F
2. The king of broken hearts doesn't know he's a king
                 C                    A
   He's trying to forget other things
                Dm             G
   Like some old chilly scenes
                        C      F-G-C
   He's walking through alone

Chorus :
                           G
   He talks to angels and the stars start to spin
                              C
   He thinks of troubles that he's gotten in
                      D7
   He recalls how his heart got broken
                           G
   And how it's still that way

                                    F
3. The king of broken hearts is so sad and wise
                     C                   A
   He can smile while he's crying inside
                   Dm             G
   We know he'll be brave tonight
                              C           F-G-C
   Cause he's the king of broken hearts

Inst : same as 1st verses

Repeat Chorus
                                         F
4. The king of broken hearts thinks that he's no fool
                         C           A
   He's a little bit like me and you
                              Dm             G
   So what's a king like that supposed to do
                     E      A
   With all that blue time
                    Dm            G
   We know he'll be brave tonight
G                                 F
   Cause he's the king of broken hearts
F                           C       F-G-C
   He's the king of broken hearts
