Tom: C
D Em
He can't sleep, he can't eat
Bm D D/F# G
He keeps thinking about her behind the locked door of her bedroom
Bm D D/F# G
As she knowingly tortures the shell that is left of her bridegroom
D Em
And what did he do to deserve
Bm D D/F# G
This whore of a wife who parades her disgrace to his face now
Bm D D/F# G
When he loved her and gave up his life in more ways than she knows how
A
And all I can say is that
D Bm G
Love is a terrible art, it's a hook in the heart
Em D2 A
That can drag you on broken glass
D Bm
And as you protest the shards in your flesh
G Em D2 A
The hook tears out your chest until you're just a broken mess
D Em
Where is God in this rot?
Bm D D/F# G
Depraved she commits the most heinous of sins and breaks her vows
Bm D D/F#
But he loves her despite all the crimes she devises in his house
D Em
Where is God? I've been taught
Bm D D/F# G
That He's close to the broken, it's true I have spoken with Him some
Bm D D/F# G
When I look in my brother's eyes I can see where his love comes from
A
And all I can say is that
D Bm G
Love is a terrible art, it's a hook in the heart
Em D2 A
That can drag you on broken glass
D Bm
And as you protest the shards in your flesh
G Em D2 A
The hook tears out your chest until you're just a broken mess
G A D
But he has mercy on her lover and does not bleed him dry
G D A
A credit to his self control, if it were me, that monster would probably die
D Bm G
Love is a beautiful thing, she can make your heart sing
Em D2 A
When you're walking on broken glass
D Bm
She will open your eyes, make your heart feel alive
G
Point you toward the sunrise
Em D2 A G
Help you leave all this broken mess behind
A D
Love is a beautiful thing
Em D A
Will you leave this broken mess behind?
