Breaking Your Own Heart (Kelly Clarkson) Album: Stronger 2011 Here are 2 ways to play the song (in my opinion the first one is the best, but the second one is easier): FIRST VERSION: Standard Tuning No Capo Chords (Pay attention to how E, B and A are played. I guess it's possible to play "regular" E, B and A, but I think it doesn't sound as good): E: 079900 B: 799800 A: 577600 C#m: x46654 F#m: 244222 Intro: E B A x2 E B A Shaking your head like it's all wrong E B A Before you're here you're already gone F#m B A And even with the light all around you F#m B A You're all alone in the dark E You're breaking your own heart B A Taking it too far down a lonely road E You say it's just one love B A But when it's close enough you just let it go F#m C#m The very thing you've been the most afraid of A You've been doing it from the start E B A Breaking your own heart E B A Too many tears, too many falls E B A It's easy to hear behind these walls F#m B A But you don't have to walk in the shadows F#m B A Life is so hard E You're breaking your own heart B A Taking it too far down a lonely road E You say it's just one love B A But when it's close enough you just let it go F#m C#m The very thing you've been the most afraid of A You've been doing it from the start E B A E B A Breaking your own heart E B A E You're breaking your own heart E B A It's not too late, I'm still right here E A A If only yBu'd let go of your fears E You're breaking your own heart B A Taking your own heart down a lonely road E You say it's just one love B A But when it's close enough you just let it go F#m C#m The very thing you've been the most afraid of A E B A You've been doing it from the start, breaking your own heart E B A E You're breaking your own heart End on E SECOND VERSION: Standard Tuning Capo on the 2nd fret Chords: D: xx0232 A: x02220 G: 320003 Em: x22000 Bm: x23342 Intro: D A G x2 D A G Shaking your head like it's all wrong D A G Before you're here you're already gone Em A G And even with the light all around you Em A G You're all alone in the dark D You're breaking your own heart A G Taking it too far down a lonely road D You say it's just one love A G But when it's close enough you just let it go Em Bm The very thing you've been the most afraid of G You've been doing it from the start D A G Breaking your own heart D A G Too many tears, too many falls D A G It's easy to hear behind these walls Em A G But you don't have to walk in the shadows Em A G Life is so hard D You're breaking your own heart A G Taking it too far down a lonely road D You say it's just one love A G But when it's close enough you just let it go Em Bm The very thing you've been the most afraid of G You've been doing it from the start D A G D A G Breaking your own heart D A G D You're breaking your own heart D A G It's not too late, I'm still right here D A G If only you'd let go of your fears D You're breaking your own heart A G Taking your own heart down a lonely road D You say it's just one love A G But when it's close enough you just let it go Em Bm The very thing you've been the most afraid of G D A G You've been doing it from the start, breaking your own heart D A G D You're breaking your own heart End on D
