BROKEN
(Burton Cummings / Kurt Winter)
The Guess Who


Take the spell away and turn me back into a man
An' give me credit, ya know I'm doin' all I can
Grab onto somethin' that you think you can hold
Grab onto somethin' 'cause you're growin' old

Yes, I've been broken too
Yes, I've been broken too
Just like you

So bring your soul to me and leave it here for just a while
Show the end to me and see if I can fake a smile
Grab onto somethin' that you think you can hold
Grab onto somethin' 'cause you're growin' old

Yes, I've been broken too
Yes, I've been broken too
Just like you

I don't have to fear, nobody else is here
Don't have to see, I know what I wanna be
Don't have to make an explanation to you

It's true, the deeper the drillin' goes
Shows how much the best of the better knows
That's why the bird with the broken wing never flew

And I've been broken too
Just like you

------ lead guitar ------

Grab onto somethin' that you think you can hold
Grab onto somethin' 'cause you're growin' old

Yes, I've been broken too
Yes, I've been broken too
Just like you

So bring your soul to me
