      [Verse 1]
A                    E
This is a sunny sky, this is a starry night
D
This is an afternoon I'll spend inside your arms, held tight
A                        E
This is a question mark, this is a final thought
D
This is a happy ending snuck into the epilogue
A                            E
This is a separate building, this is the journey there
D
This is the scenic route, this is your messy hair
A                          E
This is a promise kept, an honored lesson, taught it to you
D
Through the monumental light alive inside your armor suit, and
A                            E
This is the reason I've been shaking when I speak
D
Always terribly afraid to make mistakes and make you leave
A                                                   E
It's a shame i'm scared of heights, 'cause when you sweep me off my feet
D
I can feel the ground beneath me start to sink into the sea
A                                     E
I can feel the clouds above me coming closer to my touch
D
I can almost taste the Heavens, but compared to you it's much
A                                    E
The same as everything else, another book on a shelf
D
It's just too hard to explain, so i'm repeating myself, like

[Chorus]
A                        E
This is a broken record, this is a broken record
D
This is a broken record, you'll always know me better
A                        E
This is a broken record, this is a broken record
D
This is a broken record, so i'll be yours forever

[Verse 2]
A                        E
This is the celebration, this is the party hat
D
This is the cellophane in which my heart is wrapped
A                         E
And i'm peeling it back, 'cause i'be been feeling the love
D
This is absolute bliss, this can fit like a glove
A                           E
This is peace on the Earth, this is me, what it's worth
D
I'm not completely sure, but, still this
A                            E
This here's the final draft, this is an epitaph
D
For every negative emotion on a separate path and
A                          E
This is the safest feeling ever to be felt
D
It's a message in the morning that intends to make you melt
A                                  E
And honestly, it's my magnum opus, this is a storybook
D
Where all the illustrations have a super-friendly look
A                          E
A cordial shook hand at an important event
A
With stainless steel silverware and a porcelain dish
A                                       E
It's the weight of the pull inside of a torrent of fish
D
A metaphor used precisely to make it more than it is

[Chorus/Outro]
A                        E
This is a broken record, this is a broken record
D
This is a broken record, you'll always know me better
A                        E
This is a broken record, this is a broken record
D
This is a broken record, so i'll be yours forever

A                        E
This is a broken record, this is a broken record
D
This is a broken record, you'll always know me better
A                        E
This is a broken record, this is a broken record
D
This is a broken record, so i'll be yours forever
