Intro

(D riff with accompanying D chord)

 

D

With everything ahead of us
D

We left everything behind

D
But nothing that we needed
D

At least not at this time

G
And now the feeling that I'm feeling

                                   D
Well it's feeling like my life is finally mine

G                                                   D
With nothing to go back to we just continue to drive

 

CHORUS

 

G

Without you I was broken

                                              D
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side

G

Without you I was broken

                                              D
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side

 

 

D

I didn't know what I was looking for

D
So I didn't know what I'd find

D
I didn't know what I was missing

D
I guess you've been just a little too kind

G
And if I find just what I need

                                  D
I'll put a little peace in my mind

G
Maybe you've been looking too

                                  D
Or maybe you don't even need to try

 

CHORUS


G

Without you I was broken

                                              D
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side

G

Without you I was broken

                                              D
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side



 

(“Solo” Quiet strums, lead guitar picks notes)

 

 

D

With everything in the past

D
Fading faster and faster until it was gone

D
Found out I was losing so much more than I knew all along

G
But everything I've been working for

                                D
Was only worth nickels and dimes

G                                                   D
But if I had a minute for every hour that I've wasted


I'd be rich in time, I'd be doing fine



 

 

CHORUS

 

G

‘Cause Without you I was broken

                                              D
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side

G

Without you I was broken

                                              D
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side       x2
