Version 1MEN WITH BROKEN HEARTS Written By: Hank Williams Performed By: Hank Williams Sr, Hank Jr. ,and Hank III Key Of ?A? THIS SONG IS SPOKEN NOT SUNG [Intro] D D7 A [Verse] A E7 A You will meet many just like me....up-on lifes busy street. D with shoulders stooped and heads bowed low A and eyes that stare in defeat. A7 D For souls that live within the past...where sorrow plays all parts, A E7 A for a living death is all thats left...for men with brokens hearts. [Verse] A E7 A You have no right to be the judge,...to critisize and condemn. D Just think but for the grace of God A it would be you instead of him. A7 D One careless step, a thoughtless deed...and then the misery starts A E7 A and to those who weep death comes cheap,..these men with broken hearts. [Verse] A E7 A Humble you should be ...when they come passing by, D for its written that the greatest of men A ...never get to big to cry. A7 D Some lose faith in love and life...when sorrow shoots her darts, A E7 A ...with hope all gone,...they walk alone...these men with broken hearts. [Verse] A E7 A You've never walked in that man's shoes...or saw things through his eyes, D or stood and watched with helpless hands A while the heart inside you dies. A7 D Some were paupers,...some were kings,..some were masters of the arts, A E7 A ..but in their shame they're all the same,...these men with broken hearts. [Verse] A E7 A Life sometimes can be so cruel....that a heart will pray for death. D God why must these living dead A know pain with every brea-th... A7 D So help your brother along the road,..no matter where he starts! A E7 A D A For the God that made you,made them too....These men with broken hearts!
