For the drunk and broken hearted Passenger
Intro D Bm F#m A Asus4 A D Bm F#m G
[Verse 1]
D Bm F#m G D
Sweet Sunday afternoon, September's golden brown
D Bm F#m G D
Summer always fades too soon like the laughter of a clown
D Bm F#m G D
And shadows fill the room where sorrows come to drown
D Bm F#m G D
Your heart's a lead balloon as you sink another one down
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Em A Em
I know it numbs the way you feel
Em A Em
Blurs what is right and what is real
Em Bm A Asus4 A Asus4 A
There's no love left you can steal
[Chorus]
G D Bm E7
For the joker, laughs along As the jester's outsmarted
G Bm A Asus4 A Asus4 A
And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost
G D
And the sad man sings a song
Bm E7
For the drunk and broken hearted
G A D
And the fool, he never knows how much it costs
D Bm F#m A Asus4 A D Bm F#m G Gsus4 G
[Verse 2]
D Bm F#m G D
Sweet Sunday afternoon and all that can be heard
D Bm F#m G D
Is an old, familiar tune though you've forgotten half the words
D Bm F#m G D
And sunlight floods the room like a silent flock of birds
D Bm F#m G D Em
And hope's a red balloon, disappearing through the clouds
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Em A Em
I know it numbs the way you feel
Em A Em
Blurs what is right and what is real
Em Bm A Asus4 A Asus4 A
There's no one here to make a deal with
[Chorus]
G D Bm E7
For the joker, laughs along As the jester's outsmarted
G Bm A Asus4 A Asus4 A
And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost
G D
Oh, and the sad man he sings a song
Bm E7
For the drunk and broken hearted
G A D
And the fool, he never knows how much it costs
[Instrumental Bridge] D Bm F#m D Bm F#m Bm A Asus4 A

[Chorus]
G D Bm E7
Yeah, well, the joker, he laughs along As the jester's outsmarted
G Bm A Asus4 A Asus4 A
And the gambler tries to win back what he's lost
G D
Oh, and the sad man, he sings a song
Bm E7
For the drunk and broken hearted
G A D
Oh, and the fool, he never knows how much it costs
G A D
And the fool, he never knows how much it costs
