If Heartaches Were Nickels Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Joe Bonamassa
NOTE:  Joe tunes down half step for this one.
This is my first attempt at this.  The split "/" chords represent bass notes 
over the chord used is a walk down or up.

Verse 2:
A woman like you needs all the finer things

I don't have much to offer you baby 
Just this old broken heart . . .just this old broken heart baby

    If broken dreams, were limousines, 
        E7 
          I might take you for a ride yeah
          Am   Am/B    Am/C       Am/D
All I can do,      is think of you
