Lyrics

You stripped your love down to the wire,

(Em7)fire shin ing, (Cmaj7)cold, a lone out (G)side.

You stripped it right down to the wire,

but (Em7)I see you be hind those tir ed eyes.

Now as you (Em7)wade through the (C)shad ows that (G)live in your heart you’ll find the light that leads on.

’Cause I see (Em7)you for (C)you and your (G)beau ti ful scars.

Take my hand, (C)don’t let go.

’Cause it’s (Em7)not

too late, it’s not too late, I, I see the (C)hope in your heart.

And (Em7)some times you’re los ing (G)some times you’re shoot ing bro ken (C)ar rows in the dark,

but I, I see the hope in your heart.

(D5)Whoa.

2.

seen the dark ness and the light,

the (Em7)kind of blue that (Cmaj7)leaves you lost and (G)blind.

The on ly thing that’s black and (G)white

is that you don’t have to walk a lone this time.

We have to

It’s (Em7)not too (C)late, it’s (G)not too late.

I see the (C)hope in your heart.

Some (Em7)times you’re (C)los ing, (G)some times shoot ing bro ken ar rows in the dark.

Whoa.

About “Broken Arrows”

Can I sing "Broken Arrows" karaoke-style with the lyrics on screen?
Yes — Karaoke mode puts the lyrics of "Broken Arrows" on screen a line at a time and lights up each word in time, with a bouncing ball leading you word to word and the chord shown just above. The piano backing plays underneath in G, and you can transpose it to fit your voice.
What key is the piano accompaniment for "Broken Arrows" by Avicii in?
The backing track is in G at 114 BPM. If that doesn't sit in your vocal range, use the live transpose control to shift up or down semitones — the accompaniment moves with the new key automatically.
Can I sing over "Broken Arrows" with this accompaniment?
Yes — that's exactly what it's built for. The vocal melody is muted by default so you can sing freely. Need a pitch reference? Tap the mic icon to bring the melody back in at a lower volume.
Is this a karaoke version of "Broken Arrows"?
Effectively yes — it's the piano-only backing for "Broken Arrows", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.
Can I use "Broken Arrows" as a backing track for my instrument?
Absolutely. Singers, guitarists, violinists, wind players, and instrumental practice in general all work — the piano holds the harmony so you can carry the melody on whatever instrument you play.
Can I download the accompaniment for "Broken Arrows"?
Yes — registered users can download MIDI + MusicXML (open in any notation software). PDF sheet music is also available for the full arrangement.
Who wrote "Broken Arrows"?
"Broken Arrows" was originally performed by Avicii. This piano accompaniment is an arrangement of that song, designed for sing-along and play-along use.
What other backing tracks by Avicii are available?

Is there a karaoke version of "Broken Arrows" with lyrics?
Yes — this is a free karaoke slide for "Broken Arrows" by Avicii. The lyrics appear on screen a line at a time and each word lights up exactly when it's sung, with a bouncing ball leading you word to word. A backing plays underneath so you can just sing.
Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
It does — a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.
Can I change the key of "Broken Arrows" to match my voice or capo?
Yes. The original is in G, but the live transpose control shifts the whole song up or down semitones until the melody sits in your range (or maps to an easier guitar shape / capo position) — the on-screen chords and the backing move with it.
Can I slow "Broken Arrows" down to learn the words and chords?
Yes — the tempo control lets you take it as slow as you need while the lyrics still light up in time and the ball keeps you on the beat. Speed it back up once you can sing and play it through.
