Key of A
Oh! Break Down
Oh!
I’m fallin’ apart
Oh! Break Down
Since you toyed with my heart
I should’ve known you’d tear it to pieces
With the games you played from the start
Oh! Break Down
From such a fall I’ll never mend
Oh! Break Down
So I called in all my closest friends
So when I finally go to pieces
They’ll put me all back wrong again
BRIDGE: I’ve got my friend loneliness here on
my right
And sweet bitterness stayin’ thru the night
I got emptiness offering me more
And my old friend the blues knockin’ on my door
Oh! Break Down
I didn’t know it could hurt me so
Oh! Break Down
How could you just take your love and go
When you tore my heart to pieces
Oh! You know you broke me down so low
