Anthony John Clarke - The Broken Years
CAPO: 6th Fret
[Intro]
Em C G D/F# Em G
[Verse 1]
D
The whole family's sitting watching TV
Em C G
The only thing that makes me feel better
D
And no one plays the radio
Em C
The news is always bad
[Verse 2]
G D
The kids, they've been keeping daddy up all night
Em C
Rock 'n' Rolling, shouting, fighting
G D
Tomorrow is the marching season
Em C
We'll meet at the roundabout
[Chorus]
Em C
I want to eat at the same table
G D
I want to break the same bread
C G
I want to march down the same streets
Am D
I want to hear the same bands
Em C
I want to sing the same songs
G D
I want to say the same prayers
C G D G
Together we can mend the broken years
[Verse 3]
D
Jimmy would get married in September
Em C G
First of all he had to write a letter
D
Requesting dispensation
Em C
Just to be with the girl he loved
G D
And in the end, hardly anybody came
Em C Am
Mother' side all blamed it on the weather
D G
Three cheers for the broken years
[Chorus]
Em C
I want to eat at the same table
G D
I want to break the same bread
C G
I want to march down the same streets
Am D
I want to hear the same bands
Em C
I want to sing the same songs
G D
I want to say the same prayers
C G D G
Together we can mend the broken years
[Instrumental]
G D Em C G D Em C G D Em C Am D G
[Verse 4]
D
Connor's late for school again
Em C G
He's out of breath and running at the double
D
Get his education
Em C
He had to take the long way 'round
G D
For even if he stayed out on the main road
Em C Am
Chances are he'd run into some trouble
D G
Three cheers for the broken years
[Verse 5]
D
With all the pretty colours on the pavement
Em C
The green and gold that lighten through it all
G D
And all the little broken shops and houses
Em C
With those badly spelled slogans on the wall
G D
It's no wonder that everybody's leaving
Em C Am
It's no wonder at all, at all, at all
D G
Three cheers for the broken years
[Chorus]
Em C
I want to eat at the same table
G D
I want to break the same bread
C G
I want to march down the same streets
Am D
I want to hear the same bands
Em C
I want to sing the same songs
G D
I want to say the same prayers
C G D G Em
Together we can mend the broken years
[Chorus]
C
Eat at the same table
G D
Break the same bread
C G
March down the same streets
Am D
Hear the same bands
Em C
Sing the same songs
G D
Say the same prayers
C G D G
Together we can mend the broken years
