Boulevard Of Broken Dreams Chords

   
Song Name: Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Artist Name: Green Day

This is a simplified version of the song that is played using 4 Main Chords and 1 
Additional Chord at the end of each chorus. The additional chord is B, though you 
can play E7 instead if you find B too hard to play for now.

This is recommended for beginner guitarist to practice and learn the song before 
moving to more advanced chord progressions and styling.

Transpose Up 1 half steps using the Ultimate-Guitar transposing tool to change the 
chords below so you can play with the original Green Day version without a capo.

Alternatively Capo the 1st fret and use the chords below to play with the original 
Green Day version.

Capo Position: 1st fret (to match original song)

VERSE 1:

Em        G
 I walk a lonely road
    D             A           Em
The only one that I have ever known
           G        
Don't know where it goes 
D                A              Em
But it's home to me and I walk alone

G  D   A (Play this before entering next verse)

Em            G   
  I walk this empty street
D           A              Em      
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
          G    
Where the city sleeps
    D            A               Em
and I'm the only one and I walk alone

G  D               A	        Em
        I walk alone,I walk alone

CHORUS:

C    G            D             Em

C    G       D                Em
  My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
C     G       D                Em  
  Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
C      G      E7
  'Til then I walk alone

  I'm walking down the line
D               A               Em
That divides me somewhere in my mind
