For My Broken Heart      Reba McEntire

    Bb                   Eb
1.)There were no angry words at all 
        Bb           Eb
As we carried boxes down the hall
Eb             F               Bb    F  Eb
One by one we put them in your car
Bb               Eb
Nothing much for us to say
Bb                         Eb
One last goodbye and you drove away
                                                  F 
I watched your tail-lights as they faded in the dark
            Dm                     Gm
I couldn't face the night in that lonely bed
      Eb                F  
So I laid down on the couch instead

CHORUS:
               Eb                F 
Last night I prayed the Lord my soul to keep
Dm              Bb              
Then I cried myself to sleep
    Eb                    F         Bb   F  Gm  F
So sure life wouldn't go on without you
        Eb            F 
But oh this sun is blinding me
       D                 Gm
As it wakes me from the dark
             Bb               F                 Gm  1.)F  Eb  F  
I guess the world didn't stop   For my broken heart 2.)Dm to ending
ENDING:
             Bb               F                 Gm  F Eb F Bb               
I guess the world didn't stop   For my broken heart


    Bb                     Eb
2.)Clocks still tickin', life goes on
Bb           Eb 
Radio still plays a song
Eb                    F                    Bb    F   Eb
As I try to put my scattered thoughts in place
Bb                     Eb
and it takes all the strength I've got 
Bb                  Eb
to stumble to the coffee pot
                                              F
The first of many lonely mornings I have to face
     Dm             Gm
You call to see if I'm ok
Eb                        F
I look out the window and I just say

Go to chorus, then ending
