Breaking Your Own Heart (Kelly Clarkson)

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):

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

You're breaking your own heart
