Gov't Mule - Beautifully Broken Lyrics






Mysterious - blown in with the night
All this beauty captured in a frame
Visibly shaken but never stirred - drives them insane
I see the way she plays her men - and I know I've got to know her name

She's so beautifully broken - shaped by the wind
Dangerously twisted - Here I go again

I see the way she casts her spell - It's like drowning in moonlight
Discards them when she's done - they're lost in her twilight
I watch her move from star to star and I wonder why,
Why it feels so right

She's so beautifully broken - you can hardly see the flaw
Especially from a distance - which is always how I fall

Why do I fall for the dangerous ones - the ones that never learned to let go
And why do I lie to myself and pretend that I can break her
When she's already been so beautifully broken

Why do I fall for the dangerous ones - the ones that
Don't know how to let go
And why do I lie to myself and pretend that I can break her
When she's already been so beautifully broken

She's so beautifully broken - shaped by the wind
Dangerously twisted - Here I go again
Here I go again

  7. a.... ....

    My trio recorded this version with no overdubs for our webpage. I know, nobody can approach the great Warren Haynes, but we think it sounds like a good try www.RavensWayMusic.com

    a.... ....

    I've listened to your version of Beautifully Broken, good job man, you're only three and it sounds great. I'm also a big fan of David Grissom and your version of What passes for love is excellent.

  8. A.... A....

    Have always loved this song

  9. G.... ....

    Kenny Wayne Shepherd on drums!? :)

  14. p.... ....

    Awesome 💚

  15. R.... ....

    Seen the mule a few times...never disappointed. Warren and the boys shred. :) Emotion...bleeding out onto the stage.

  16. J.... B....

    When I became a widow at 30. A friend told me this would be my theme song for life after the fog lifted... He was right. ❤️ Love the song on so many levels.

  17. W.... R....

    Got me some chills going after the Prince intro...

    W.... R....

  19. K.... ....

    One of the best performances I’ve ever heard

  20. M.... B....

    Fantastic song!

  21. k.... ....

    There a video I can get of the full concert?

  22. A.... R....

    Don't know how anyone could dislike this song! Almost a 6 hour concert in memory of original bass player (blank on his name at the moment) lol.. It's called Deepest End. Check it out!

    A.... R....

    Alan Woody ...co founder ...Him & Warren played with the Allmans for years .....

    A.... R....

    Thank you!!

  23. b.... f....

    One more thing, to those of you who refer to this is as blues, I respectfully disagree. And that is only because the time signature, groove, and overall structure is not reminiscent of a typical/classic blurs riff. Now, in saying that, I suppose the blues can be whatever you want it to be. To me, Gary Moore's Still Got the Blues, and stuff like that is blues. I guess it's a musician thing for you to fully understand what I'm talking about.

  24. D.... F....

    <3 love this SO much <3

  25. C.... R....

    Wow fuck those dove's hear Warren cry!!!!

  26. B.... N....

    I hate you Mike Emprich... I hate you for everything you've done to me.. I hate you for making me love you and I hate you for throwing me away because your daddy told to do so.... & I hope you see this...

  27. T.... ....

    that's what a Les Paul is supposed to sound like

  28. M.... L....

    This group gives me goosebumps every time I hear this. unreal amazing Thank you for posting this video!!

  29. j.... ....

    Brilliant! Warren and the boys are masters! Thank you for sharing!

  32. B.... P....

    Det er noget af det aller bedste jeg nogen sinde har hørt.

  33. T.... S....

    Warren Haynes... :)

  34. l.... ....

    You know my love. He’s so beautifully broken

  52. M.... D....

    Warren Haynes looks like someone who takes massive dumps. I feel like being that talented and taking gargantuan shits are somehow related, but I don't see how.

  63. J.... C....

    Matt Abts, batteur de Gov't Mules est pour moi un des meilleurs batteurs actuels... complètement ambidextre en plus!

  64. s.... ....

  72. K.... P....

    Gearing up to see Gov't Mule tonight in Charlotte! This band has an awesome reputation for fantastic live performances. We can't see Gregg Allman anymore so we've been gravitating to Tedeschi Trucks and Gov't Mule. This will be a first see for me. I'm excited!

    K.... P....

    get funnk excited!

  73. T.... B....

    What a great song and a fantastic performance. The album version is fine, but this live take is a lot better, particukarly the outro solo.

  74. C.... R....

    this is so amazing!!! why are there people who dislike this? hundred times better than the studio version!!!

  75. C.... D....

    Warren and the boys got me through the absolute toughest time in my life, and they will forever be my fave. He sings to my soul, and its dark in there...

  82. G.... P....

    Man I love this song !!!!!

  83. k.... k....

    Уорен Хеинс великолепен

  84. J.... S....

    to me Warren is right up there with all the best like skynard hell he plays with the Almond Brothers and helped teach Derick Trucks. That says it all about the man live long Warren

  85. S.... ....

    1.Prince
    2.Warren Haynes
    3.Ted Nugent
    4.Dweezil Zappa
    5. Eddie Van Halen


    Those are the 5 greatest of ALL time, none will ever be able to match them.

    Warren and Dweezil are two of the nicest guys you will ever meet. Havent met the Nuge or Van Halen yet and dont think ill be meeting Prince anytime soon

    S.... ....

    StoogesOfTheFuture Ted Nugent is mediocrity in human form

  86. L.... B....

    Mine.... just thqtv4ev4eryty8ijg\

    It's nice to see Farmer, too ... RIP

    C.... N....

    If someone says the don’t like warren or the mule just play this solo and don’t say anything. Then afterwards, when they’re like holy fucking shit, reveal the cold hard truth that warren Haynes is a fucking bad mahhh

  94. D.... S....

    The Following Review Is IMHO:

    Good god. Music simply does not get any better than this. Every phrase, every note, every moment of this is perfection. A performance for the ages.

    G.... J....
