PASSENGER – A Song for the Drunk and Broken Hearted Chords

[Intro]

 D  Bm F#m A

[Verse 1]

D       Bm              F#m  G
  Sweet Sunday afternoon, September's 

golden brown
D        Bm                  F#m     
  Summer always fades too soon like the 
G
laughter of a clown
D  Bm                  F#m     G
   Shadows fill the room where sorrows 

come to drown
D      Bm                  F#m    
  Your heart’s a late bloom as you 
 G
sink another one down
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]

Em          A
  I know it knows the way you feel
Em              A
  Blurs what is right and what is real
Em           Bm                       A
  There's no love left you could steal
 
 
[Chorus]

        G                 D
For the joker, love is so long
       Bm         E7
As the jesters outsmarts it
        G                Bm               
And the gambler tries to win 
               A 
back what he's lost
        G                D
And the sad mind sings a song
        Bm                  E7
For the drunk and broken-hearted
        G                   A
And the fool, he never knows 

how much it cost
 
 
[Riff]

[Verse 2]

D           Bm             F#m   
  The sweet Sunday afternoon and 
G
all that candy heart
D       Bm                F#m         
  Is an old, familiar tune for 
          G  
you’ve forgotten half the words
D     Bm                     F#m     
  The sunlight floods the room like 
  G
a silent flock of birds
D     Bm              F#m    
  And hopes a red bloom, 
     G
disappearing through the clouds
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]

Em          A
  I know it knows the way you feel
Em              A
  Blurs what is right and what is real
Em           Bm                     A
  There's no one here to make a deal with
 
 
[Chorus]

        G                 D
For the joker, love is so long
       Bm         E7
As the jesters outsmarts it
        G                Bm               
And the gambler tries to win back 
           A  
what he's lost
        G                D
And the sad mind sings a song
        Bm                  E7
For the drunk and broken-hearted
        G                   A
And the fool, he never knows how 

much it cost

[Chorus]
                G                
Yeah, well, the joker, 
             D
he loves the long
       Bm         E7
As the jesters outsmarts it
                                      
And the gambler tries to 
Bm                 A  
win back what he's lost
            G                   
Oh, and the sad mind, he, 
        D
sings a song
        Bm                  E7
For the drunk and broken-hearted
             G                  A
Oh, and the fool, he never knows how 

much it cost
           G                  A              
Well, the fool, he never knows how 
        D
much it cost
