Intro: D Verse: D With everything ahead of us D We left everything behind D But nothing that we needed D At least not at this time D G And now the feeling that I'm feeling G D Well it's feeling like my life is finally mine Em G D With nothing to go back to we just continue to drive Chorus: Em Without you I was broken G D But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side Em Without you I was broken G D But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side Verse: D I didn't know what I was looking for D So I didn't know what I'd find D I didn't know what I was missing D I guess you've been just a little too kind G And if I find just what I need D I'll put a little peace in my mind G Maybe you've been looking too D Or maybe you don't even need to try Chorus: Em Without you I was broken G D But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side Em Without you I was broken G D But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side Verse: D With everything in the past D Fading faster and faster until it was gone D Found out I was losing so much more than I knew all along Verse: G Because everything I've been working for D Was only worth nickels and dimes G But if I had a minute for every hour that I've wasted D I'd be rich in time, I'd be doing fine Chorus ( x4 ): Em Without you I was broken G D But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side Em Without you I was broken G D But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side Em Without you I was broken G D But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side Em Without you I was broken G D But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.
