[Intro] [percussive acoustic guitar strumming with hammer-ons] [Verse 1] Every time you wander It's like starting over I love you But it's hard to remember There’s an empty place inside me I can't fill without you But I wonder if we'll make it through December [Chorus] The years keep getting harder like the callus on my hands I'm working dawn to dusk but you don't understand That's my place in glory and you're my promised land It's not hard to break the heart of a broken man [Instrumental Break] [acoustic guitar solo with melodic flatpicking] [Verse 2] You say you're leaving You found something better Kids are gone There's nothing left for you There’s an empty place inside you You can't fill without him After all you're feeling that you're due [Chorus] The years keep getting harder like the callus on my hands I'm working dawn to dusk but you don’t understand That's my place in glory and you're my promised land It's not hard to break the heart of a broken man [Instrumental Break] [acoustic guitar solo with rhythmic strumming and bass note runs] [Chorus] Years keep getting harder like the callus on my hands I'm working dawn to dusk but you don't understand That's my place in glory and you're my promised land It's not hard to break the heart of a broken man [Outro] It's not hard to break the heart of a broken man It's not hard to break the heart of a broken man [final acoustic guitar flourish]
