Bb Dm/A
As I walk this land of broken dreams
Gm Eb
I have visions of many things
Bb Dm/A
Happiness is just an illusion
Gm D/A Bb7
Filled with sadness and confusion
CHORUS
C Em/B
What becomes of the broken hearted
Am F
Who have love that's now departed
C Em/B Am
I know Ive got to find some kind of
Am/G E7 F Dm A/E
Piece of mind
Baby // | // / /
Bb Dm/A
Roots of love grow all around
Gm Eb
But for me they come tumbling down
Bb Gdim
Every day heart aches grow a little stronger
Eb7 Dm A/E
I can't stand this pain much longer
Bb Dm/A
I walk in shadows searching for light
Gm Eb
Cold and alone no comfort in sight
Bb Dm/A
Hoping and praying for someone to care
Gm D/A Bb7
Always moving but going no where
CHORUS
C Em/B
What becomes of the broken hearted
Am F
Who have love that's now departed
C Em/B Am
I know Ive got to find some kind of
Am/G E F Dm A/E
piece of mind baby // | // / /
Bb Dm/A
I'm searching though I don't succeed
Gm Eb
But someones love leaves a growing need
Bb Gdim
Always lost theres no place for beginning
Eb7 Dm Cm
All thats left is an unhappy ending
Bb Dm/A
Now what becomes of the broken hearted
Gm Eb
Who have love that's now departed
Bb Dm/A
I know Ive got to find some kind of piece of mind
Gm
Ill be searching everywhere
Eb
Just to find someone to care
Bb
Ill be looking every day
Dm/A
I know Im gonna find a way
Gm
Nothings gonna stop me now
Eb
Ill find a way somehow
(faded by now!)
