Break Your Heart - Barenaked Ladies
The bra[G]vest thing I've [Bm]ever done
Was to [C]run away and h[D]ide
But not this t[G]ime, [Bm]not this time[C][D]
And the [G]weakest thing I've [Bm]ever done
Was to [C]stay right by your s[D]ide
Just like this t[G]ime [Bm]and every tim[C]e[D]
[Em]I couldn't tell you I was h[C]appy you were gone[D]
So I [Am]lied and said that I missed you when we were apart[D]
[Em]I couldn't tell you so I [C]had to lead you o[D]n
But I [C]didn't mean to [D]break your heart.[G][Bm][C][D]
[)]
And if [G]I always seemed [Bm]distracted,
[C]Like my mind is somewhere els[D]e
That's bec[G]ause it's true,[Bm] yes it's true[C][D]
It's the [G]stupid pride that[Bm] makes me feel
Like I [C]have to follow thro[D]ugh
Even [G]half-assedly,[Bm] loving you[C][D]
[Em]Why must I always speak in [C]terms of cowardic[D]e?
When I [Am]guess I should have just come out and told
you right from the start[D]
[Em]Why must I always tell you[C] all I want is [D]this?
I guess cause I [C]didn't want to [D]break your [G]heart.
And you said
[Am]What'd you think I that I was gonna do?
[Am]Curl up and die just because of you?
[D]I'm not that weak, you know
[Am]What'd you think that I was gonna do?
[Am]Try to make you love me as much as I love you?
[D]How could you be so lo[G]w?
[G]You arrogant[Bm] man,
[C]What do you think that I[D] am?
[Em]My heart will be f[C]ine[D]
[D]Just stop wasting my time
And now I [G]know that you w[Bm]ill be okay
[C]And that I got what I w[D]ant
And that's [G]rid of you[Bm]
Good-bye[C][D]
And its [G]not cause I'll be [Bm]missing you
[C]That makes me fall a[D]part
It's just that I [C]didn't mean to b[D]reak
No, I [C]didn't mean to [D]break
No, I [C]didn't mean to [D]break
Your hea[G]rt[Bm][C][D]
