VERSE:
Bb                       Dm/F
  As I walk this land of broken dreams
Gm                  Eb
  I have visions of many things
Bb                 Dm/F
  But happiness is just an illusion
Gm                     D7    Fm6
  Filled with sadness and confusion


CHORUS:
C                     Cmaj7
  What becomes of the brokenhearted
Am                     F
  Who has love that's now departed
  C
  I know I've got to find
  Am/C
  Some kind of peace of mind
   E7        F     F C
  Maybe, Oh yeah   / /


VERSE:
Bb                  Dm/F
  The roots of love grow all around
Gm                        Eb
  But for me they come a tumbling down
Bb                      C7
  Every day heartaches grow a little stronger
Eb                              F
  I can't stand this pain much longer


VERSE:
Bb                   Dm/F
  I walk in shadows searching for light
Gm                   Eb
  Cold and alone no comfort in sight
Bb                       Dm/F
  Hoping and praying for someone who cares
Gm                    D7     Fm6
  Always moving and going nowhere


CHORUS:
C                     Cmaj7
  What becomes of the brokenhearted
Am                     F
  Who has love that's now departed
  C
  I know I've got to find
  Am/C
  Some kind of peace of mind
   E7        F      F Cm
  Help me, please   / /


VERSE:
Bb                       Dm/F
  I'm searching though I don't succeed
Gm                             Eb
  For someones love their's a growing need
Bb                        C7
  All is lost there's no place for beginning
Eb                              F
  All that's left is an unhappy ending


OUTRO:
Bb                     Dm/F
  Now, what becomes of the brokenhearted
Gm                    Eb
  Who has love that's now departed
  Bb
  I know I've got to find
  Dm/F
  Some kind of peace of mind
   Gm
  I'll be searching everywhere
   Eb
  Just to find someone to care
   Bb
  I'll be looking every day
    Dm/F
  I know I'm gonna find a way
   Gm
  Nothings going to stop me now
   Eb
  I'll find a way somehow
   Bb
  I'll be looking every day
 Dm/F
  I know I'm gonna find a way.....FADE OUT
