[Verso 1]

C                         F 
Thank you for taking good care of my heart. 
          C                   G 
When it’s battered and beaten and all torn apart. 
   C                     F 
Be patient with me and I surely will mend. 
     C                             G      C 
I’ll never be perfect, but I’ll be better again. 


[Verso 2]

C                     F 
I’m all in pieces and blown in the wind. 
C                               G 
Scattered and shattered but I’m not giving in. 
C                             F 
Tomorrow I’ll be walking, and someday I’ll dance. 
          C                   G         C 
If you’ll only be patient and give me a chance. 


[Refrão]

C       F 
Hey oh, where will you go? 
C                     G 
What will you see and who will you know? 
C       F 
Hey oh, let the ball roll. 
C       G        C 
Further down the highway. 


[Verso 3]

C                                 F 
I thought I’d seen hard times but never like this. 
C                                          G 
Who’d guess that those hard times would be times that I’d miss. 
C                            F 
My heart had been broken but never in two. 
C                   G          C 
Never knew broken until I lost you.

C                      F 
Broken bones heal just like broken hearts. 
       C                           G 
You’re left with the scars but you get a new start. 
    C                          F 
You pick up the pieces and you bandage the wounds. 
    C                     G          C 
You fill up your tank and follow the moon. 


[Refrão]

C       F 
Hey oh, where will you go? 
C                     G 
What will you see and who will you know? 
C       F 
Hey oh, let the ball roll. 
C       G        C 
Further down the highway. 


[Verso 5]

Give me a cabin in the shade of the pines. 
   C                    G 
My dog and guitar and a bottle of wine. 
C                    F 
Give me some time to create a new fate. 
             C                  G            C 
Let the past slip away like the boats on the lake.

When it’s battered and beaten and all torn apart.

Be patient with me and I surely will mend.

I’ll never be perfect, but I’ll be better again.
