Hey---!
Am Em G C D Em
Am Em D G C D
Em D Em D Em
Em G
Well he threw one down from the top of the stairs
Am C D
beautiful women were standing everywhere
Em G
they all got wet when he smashed that thing
Am D G
but off in the dark you could hear somebody sing
Am Em
oh it breaks my heart to see those stars
G C D G
smashing a perfectly good guitar
Am Em
i don't know who they think they are
D G C Em
smashing a perfectly good guitar
Em D Em
Em D Em
Em G
it started back in 1963
Am C D
his momma wouldn't buy him that new red harmony
Em G
he settled for a sunburst with a crack
Am D G
but he's still trying to break his momma's back.
chorus
Am Em
oh it breaks my heart to see those stars
G C D Em
smashing a perfectly good guitar
Am Em D
i don't know who they think they are
G C D
smashing a perfectly good guitar
Em D Em
Em D Em
Em G
he loved that guitar just like a girlfriend
Am C D
but every good thing comes to an end
Em G
now he just sits in his room all day
Am D G
whistling every note he used to play
Solo
Am Em G C D Em
Am Em D G C D
Em D Em
Em D Em
Em G
there ought to be a law with no bail
Am C D
smash a guitar and you go to jail
Em G
with no chance for early parole
Am C D G
you don't get out until you get some soul
chorus
Am Em
oh it breaks my heart to see those stars
G C D Em
smashing a perfectly good guitar
Am Em D
i don't know who they think they are
G C D
smashing a perfectly good guitar
Em D Em
Em D Em
Em G
late at night the end of the road
Am C D
he wished he still had the old guitar to hold
Em G
he'd rock it like a baby in his arms
Am D G
never let it come to any harm
chorus
Am Em
oh it breaks my heart to see those stars
G C D Em
smashing a perfectly good guitar
Am Em D
i don't know who they think they are
G C D Em
smashing a perfectly good -- good -- guitar
Em D Em
Em D Em
