Patty Loveless - Pieces On The Ground


CAPO: 5th Fret




INTRO: C  F    C    F  N.C.  C

                 Am7
Mend this broken body
   F             C      G
In pieces on the ground
   C        Em          Am
My spirit's cracked and crumbled
   F                     G      F
My world's been crashing down

                   C
The weight upon my shoulders
       Am    G              F
Got so heavy they just gave in
       Dm7       Em      Am
Till I could not lift my head up
         F      G    C
To face another day again


      F                C
Let a ray of hope come shining
         F              C
So I may look up at the sky
          F            C
And see a glimpse of tomorrow
          F               G
Where I'm standing in the light


       F            C
Let me climb upon a hilltop
        F                   C
Healing hands can touch me now
          Dm7       Em     Am
They will mend this broken body
   F      G      C
In pieces on the ground


INTERLUDE: C  F    C    F  N.C.  C


                       Am7
The human heart's a fragile thing
   F                  C     G
It shatters just like glass
       C      Em       Am
Gather up all of these splinters
           F              G      F
Crush them into grains of sand


                C
So the wind may scatter them
            Am     G       F
Towards the angels looking down
          Dm7       Em     Am
They will mend this broken body
   F      G      C
In pieces on the ground


       F                C
Then a ray of hope came shining
       F                C
When I looked into your eyes
      F           C
I saw all of my tomorrows
          F               G
And we're standing in the light


       F           C
We are high upon a hilltop
        F                 C
Healing hands touching me and
   Dm7       Em     Am
Mending this broken body
   F      G      C
In pieces on the ground
