[Verse 1] The green room smells like beer and dust My case hinge squeals like it’s had enough Set list folded in my back jean pocket One busted string and a lucky matchstick Tom’s already halfway out the door Nina won’t look at me anymore [Pre-Chorus] And the amp cuts out Then comes back to life Like it knows tonight Is the last good ride [Chorus] Broken amp, broken heart Same old spark, falling apart (Play it loud) (Play it loud) Broken amp, broken heart If I’m going down, I’ll do it hard (One more time) (One more time) [Verse 2] Red tape patch on the cable end Bartender waves, says play it again My fingers bleed on the maple neck Every note I miss comes right back up Tom won’t grin, Nina won’t stay But the room still leans my way [Pre-Chorus] And the floorboards shake When I hit that chord For a second I feel Like we’re ours once more [Chorus] Broken amp, broken heart Same old spark, falling apart (Play it loud) (Play it loud) Broken amp, broken heart If I’m going down, I’ll do it hard (One more time) (One more time) [Bridge] I take the solo Like a prayer in flame Every scar on my hands Saying your name Tom steps back Nina shuts her eyes And the whole damn room Hangs on that cry [Chorus] Broken amp, broken heart Same old spark, falling apart (Play it loud) (Play it loud) Broken amp, broken heart If I’m going down, I’ll do it hard (One more time) (One more time) [Outro] Last note ringing Beer glass glow Broken amp But I let it show
