Intro: D-E D-E

Verse:

F#m         E
In a modern culture,
F#m                   E
My friend you must be careful,
D                E
They've a million,
D               E
Ways to kill you

F#m               E
In this dangerous world,
F#m                       E
There's an art to growing old,
             D-E
Taking chances,
            D-F
Magic Happens


Chorus:
           A         Bm
One mistake's all it takes,
           D           F
And your life has come undone,
       A               D               F
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl
       A                Bm
It's a drag I know it's hard,
           D           F
But you're tearing her apart,
       A               D               F
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl


Verse:
F#m  E                   F#m         E
I am afraid that there's much to be afraid of
     D-E               D-E
Here today and gone tomorrow

      F#m               E
Don't end up in the gutter
     F#m                E
Just like the one before
                D-E
You're just the same
              D-F
You're such a loser


Chorus:
           A         Bm
One mistake's all it takes,
           D           F
And your life has come undone,
       A               D               F
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl
       A                Bm
It's a drag I know it's hard,
           D           F
But you're tearing her apart,
       A               D               F
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl

                               D-E          D-E   D-E   D-E
Gotta let it go because you're breaking up, girl, girl...


Chorus: (shift one fret higher)
           B         C#m
One mistake's all it takes,
           E           G
And your life has come undone,
       B               E               G
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl
       B                C#m
It's a drag I know it's hard,
           E           G
But you're tearing her apart,
       B               E               G
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl

                   E-F#  E-F#   E-F#     E
Breaking up the girl,    girl,  girl
