House of Broken Dreams
Mark Heard
Album: High Noon
G C
Hear the whistle blow
G C
It echoes down my soul
Em C D
It's something I have always known
G C
Nothing sounds so sad
G C
A cry to the unknown
Em C D
The fundamental sigh of all who've gone this way before
(D-sus)- D C D G
Lay me down to sleep
(Dsus)- D D - C G
Come and comfort me
C D Em
I'll sleep in peace
C D (Dsus-D)
In a house of broken dreams
G C
I'm old enough to know
G C
That dreams are quickly spent
Em C D
Like a pouring rain on warm cement
G C
Or fingerprints in dust
G C
Nectar on the wind
Em C
D
Save them for tomorrow and tomorrow lets you down again
Em C G
Give me the reasons to go on
Em C
Soften the sorrow that shatters and bends
D Dsus-D C-G
And mends broken dreams
(etc.)
Sentimental hearts
Hungry for the past
Penniless at the wishing-well
Memories will last
And cover certain scars
Acquired in the daily grind of being what we are
(Chorus)
