When Somethings Broken - Patty Griffin

When Somethings Broken chords

Capo on the second fret

She mutes the strings a lot on this song.  That's what the
x's mean in the tab.  Just kinda slap and mute the strings.
The A chord is played like it is in the intro throughout the song.

I can tell when something's broken, and I know when I ain't welcome anymore

A                           A
City lights ain't fireflies, this hole ain't a home, it's true

A                         A
I never intended to be the promises I made to you

I can tell when something's broken, and I know when I ain't welcome anymore

D                             E
I don't care who's listening, I don't care what the neighbors think

A                                 A
Only time the truth gets told, is when it's surfaced by a drink

I can tell when something's broken, and I know when I ain't welcome anymore
