And he has quite a few of them

They know he'll understand

That's just the way it goes.

Like some ol' chilly scenes
F Bb Eb Eb Bb
He's walking through alone.

SOLO (Eb Bb G Cm F Bb)
CHORUS
Eb
The king of broken hearts thinks that he's an old fool
Bb
He's a little bit like me and you
G Cm
So what's a king like that supposed to do
F D
With all that blue time
G Cm
We know he'll be brave tonight
F Eb
'Cause he's the king of broken hearts
Eb Bb
He's the king of broken hearts.
Ok. And here are the chords with a capo at the third fret:
Eb=C
Bb=G
G=E
Cm=Am
F=D
D=B
It's also very cool, I think, to walk down from Bb to G (or from G to E if you
are using the capo). Also, if you are not using the capo, I find it better to
finger the chords like:
Eb:x65343
Bb:688766
G:355433
Cm:x35543
F:133211
D;x5777x
as I think they tend to blend a little better with the vocals.
