Break Your Heart

©2019 by Paul Sacco rev 6-16-20 rev 7-9-21

INTRO E A 2X (Morg, Paul)


V1 She was a young girl, in a small town  (bass drum comes in)

He - he was forward, didn’t know what he’d found (add Ken and James)


INTRO (whole band loud E A 2X)


V2 They went to the drive in, stole the chance to hide,

every place was theirs, he could not be denied..

Fm7                          B7

the sparks would fly, till she said goodbye…


CHORUS

E                    A

You’ve got to hurt when you lose that feel

You got the hurt, it don’t seem real

F#m                                                           A

But you’ve got to break your heart; you’ve got to break your heart.. (long stop

E

on A) …before it can heal


LEAD Ken – Like V2 (with F#m and B7)


Morgan (then Ken strings only).. She was just a young girl, in my home town…


INTERLUDE - E A (building)

now the stars are gone, but the dreams are there

when all that’s left, is your despair

is something more, over the hill

than livin’ on, and payin’ bills


LEAD (Paul) 4X then band quiets down -1X on E


CHORUS (soft strum, then loud)

But you got to break your heart 3X … (short stop)

Before it can heal. (E A quietly fading)
