This is the song from his soundtrack album 'Curious George'.
[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D
With everything ahead of us
D
We left everything behind
D
But nothing that we needed
D
At least not at this time
D      G
And now the feeling that I'm feeling
G                                    D
Well it's feeling like my life is finally mine
Em                   G                     D
With nothing to go back to we just continue to drive
[Chorus]
    Em
Without you I was broken
        G                                D
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side
         Em
Said without you I was broken
        G                                D
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side
[Verse 2]
D
I didn't know what I was looking for
D
So I didn't know what I'd find
D
I didn't know what I was missing
D
I guess you've been just a little too kind
G
And if I find just what I need
                          D
I'll put a little peace in my mind
G
Maybe you've been looking too
                                D
Or maybe you don't even need to try
[Chorus]
    Em
Without you I was broken
        G                                D
And I'd rather be broke down with you by my side
         Em
Said without you I was broken
        G                                D
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side
[Solo]
D  D  D  D
G  G  D  D
G  G  D  D
Em  G  D  D
Em  G  D  D
[Verse 3]
D
With everything in the past
D
Fading faster and faster until it was gone
D
Found out I was losing so much more than I knew all along
    G
But everything I've been working for
                            D
Was only worth nickels and dimes
    G
But if I had a minute for every hour that I wasted
                D
I'd be rich in time, I'd be doing fine
[Chorus]
           Em
'Cause without you I was broken
        G                                D
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side
         Em
Said without you I was broken
        G                                D
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side
    Em
Without you I was broken
        G                                D
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side
    Em
Without you I was broken
        G                                D
But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side
