DmWhen the spell is broken
When the spell is broken
How you ever gonna Amkeep enough
You cant cry if you dGmont know how.
When the spell is Dmbroken
When the spell is broken
All the joy is Amgone from her face
Welcome back to the Gmhuman race
How Amlong can the flame of Bblove remain
When you Ccurse and you Bbfight
And Cnever see the Bblight
Or hear a word Cspoken
When the spell is Dmbroken
When the spell is broken
(2nd verse)
When the spell is broken
All your magic and your ways and schemes
All your lies come and tear at your dreams
When the Spell is broken
When the Spell is broken
Are you handing her that same old line
It's just straws in the wind this time
When Love has died, there's none left starry eyed
No kiss and no tears
No farewell souveniers, not even a token
When the Spell is broken
(3rd verse)
(solo)
Don't swear your heart
From the very start
Love letters you wrote
Get pushed back down your throat
And leave you choking
When the Spell is broken

WHEN THE SPELL IS BROKEN- Richard Thompson
DmWhen the spGmell is brDmoken, when the speGmll is broDmken
How you eFver gonna kAmeep her now
You can't cry if you Gmdon't know how
When the spFell is bDmroken, when the speGmll is brDmoken
All the jFoy it is gAmone from her face
Welcome back to the Gmhuman race
How Amlong can the flame of Bblove remain
When you Ccurse and fBbight and Cnever see liBbke
Or hear a like sCpoken
When the spell is bDmroken
(can't cry if you don't know hoGmw, Dmcan't cry if you don't know hGmow)
When the spell is bDmroken (can't cry if you don't know hGmow)
Oh when the spell is bDmroken
All your maFgic and your wAmays and schemes
All your lies come and tear at your dreams
When the spell is broken (can't cry if you don't know how)
When the spell is broken
Are you handing her that same old line
It's just straws in the wind this time
When love has died, there's none left starry eyed
No kiss and no tears
No farewell souveniers, not even a token
When the spell is broken
SOLO (over Dm Gm)
Don't sAmwear your heart from the veBbry start
Love letters you wrote
Get pushed back down your throat
And leave you choking
When the spell is broken (when the spell when the spell when the spell)
When the spell is broken
When the spell is broken, when the spell is broken
When the spell is broken
Can't cry if you don't know how, can't cry if you don't know how
Can't cry if you don't know how, can't cry if you don't know how
NOTE: I believe I found a few more chords and reordered the words a bit,
but in general this is a rip off of the previous version.
