T Rex — Broken Hearted Blues Chords
Broken Hearted Blues
This is one of my all time favorite songs, period. It's only a four
chord progression and a tiny lil' riff, but it's so simple yet beautiful.

D major C maj 7
This is a song that I wrote when I was young
A minor E minor D maj (play the lil' riff here)
and I call it the broken hearted blues
D major C maj 7
The air on that night was tempered like a knife
A minor E minor D maj (play the lil' riff here)
and the people wore the face masks of a clown
.....the same four chord progression with the riff at the end, that's the
whole song, simple and sweet, just the way I like em'....the Axe Miester!
