I don't need to call the C.I.A.

My friends all saw you with another guy,

And now you're standing here with nothing to say.



Once again you're on some shaky ground,

With all those sorry friends you, hang around.

It seems the higher that I build you up,

The more you bring me down.



Well I'm through, I'm done with you.

Before my heart is broken.



(Chorus)

Broken Guitar, it's got broken strings.

It's always the same shit, it's always the same thing.

First she loves me, then she leaves.

It's always the same shit, it's always the same old thing.



And I'm glad your ass is leaving baby.



I really am, and here's another thing.

Don't go waiting for your phone to ring.

And don't go thinking that I miss you,

When you listen to me sing,

About a girl, who's all alone, and her heart is broken.



(Instrumental Intercession)



You didn't have to sneak behind my back,

And your apologies, they don't mean jack.

So I think you'd better take your sorry ass,

And move it down the line.

Before it's time, to change my mind.

Before your heart is broookennn.



(Chorus)

Broken Guitar, it's got broken strings.

It's always the same shit, it's always the same thing.

You say you love me, then you leave.

It's always the same shit, it's always the same old thing.



Broken Guitar, it's got broken strings.

It's always the same shit, it's always the same thing.

One girl drops by, as another girl leaves, and

It's always the same shit, it's always the same old thing.



It's always the same old thing. (X8)

(Old thing, Old thing, Old thing)
