Intro:
Gm , Dm , Gm (2x)

Verse 1:
Gm
Now people will say
             Dm                Gm
She's just a fool and won't survive
Gm
She gave it away
              Dm      
Gone with the early morning call
              Gm
She knew they lied

Chorus 1:
Bb                   F/A
Down, she just broke down
          Gm               D
Tying her hair, fixing her blouse
Eb                   F
Down, she just broke down
            Bb                        F
Whispered a prayer, then screamed out loud

Verse 2:
Gm
Look - it's one o'clock
          Dm               Gm
He didn't call, didn't get back
Gm
She tried to unlock
           Dm
All of her dreams that she denied
              Gm
Had turned to black

Chorus 2:
Bb                   F/A
Down, she just broke down
             Gm                      D
Touching his face, straightening his tie
Eb                   F
Down, she just broke down
              Bb                F
Put things in place just to get by

Bridge:
Eb                  F
Somehow she would believe
Gm                      F
Thinking that she could deal
Eb                     F
You know it's not like that
Gm                     F
Sometimes things get unreal

Piano interlude:
Bb , F/A , Gm , D
Eb , F , Bb , F

Repeat Chorus 1

Final chorus:
Bb    F/A
Down, she just broke down
Gm                 D
Touching his face, straightening his tie
Eb    F                    Bb   F
Down, she just broke down
