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
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


[Verse]
                                 F
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


[Instrumental]
F C A Dm G C F G C


[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


[Coda]
                                      F
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
