Standard (EADGBE)

The broken bone, oh you know it goes into the cast

 The broken bottle is just now all broken glass

 The broken toy now makes no one laugh

 And those broken promises, no they don't come to pass

The broken wheel, no those spokes won't turn

No the broken candle can't burn

The broken stove leaves one hungry and cold

And the broken stone? Oh you know it don't roll

Chorus

But dawn can break night and make it day

 And sunlight can make storm clouds fade away

 The brightest diamonds can be made from lumps of broken coal

 And the broken heart can be made whole

Yeah. Oh yeah. Oh yeah.

Those broken bells? No they won't ring today.

No the broken piano won't play

The oak's broken branches can't grow

No, and the broken motor just don't go

Broken down all along that lonesome road

Broken back underneath that heavy load

broke, bust, but you do what you must

When you all worked so hard to build, has just turned to dust

But dawn can break night and make it day

And sunlight can make storm clouds fade away

The brightest diamonds can be made from lumps of broken coal

And the broken heart can be made whole

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Oh!

But dawn can break night and make it day

And sunlight can make storm clouds fade away

The brightest diamonds can be made from lumps of broken coal

And the broken heart can be made whole

Dawn can break night and make it day

And sunlight can make storm clouds fade away

The brightest diamonds can be made from lumps of broken coal

And the broken heart can be made whole

Yeah. Yeah. Oh yeah.
