Broken Arrow

G                 Bm           Em          C
The lights turned on and the curtain fell down,
Am                        D
And when it was over it felt like a dream, 
Am                                D
They stood at the stage door and begged for a scream, 
G               G/F#          Em
The agents had paid for the black limousine 
      C                     D
That waited outside in the rain. 

Coro:
G                  Gsus
Did you see them,
G       C
did you see them? 
F Fmaj7 F6

Dm               G7
Did you see them in the river? 
Bb                 Dm      Em  F  Em
They were there to wave to you. 
Dm                       G7
Could you tell that the empty quivered, 
Bb              Dm          Em
Brown skinned Indian on the banks
            F           Em
That were crowded and narrow, 
F            G
Held a broken arrow? 

G          Bm         Em     C
Eighteen years of American dream, 
Am                            D
He saw that his brother had sworn on the wall. 
    Am                      D
He hung up his eyelids and ran down the hall, 
       G        G/F#       Em
His mother had told him a trip was a fall, 
      C                     D
And don't mention babies at all.

G                  Bm           Em      C
The streets were lined for the wedding parade, 
Am                                      D
The Queen wore the white gloves, the county of song, 
Am                              D
The black covered caisson her horses had drawn 
G              G/F#          Em
Protected her King from the sun rays of dawn. 
       C                         D
They married for peace and were gone.

Every break, every burn, every toss, every turn,  
                                         Am
Every sin, everything you've learned,    it's all programmed, all programmed
