[Intro]
Gbmaj7 Ebm9 Bbm7 Db Gbmaj7
 
 
[Verse 1]
             Ebm9            Bbm7
I'm dazzled hard, we're in Berlin
              Db          Fmaj7/Db            Gbmaj7
And when you leave, just break it down to me softly
                 Ebm9          Bbm7
Through veils of rain, I'm shattering
             Db
I dip into the love we had with ease
Gbmaj7                 Ebm9
Lemon and ginger beer, soap suds on navels
Bbm7                     Db
If I've upset you, could you maybe say so?
Gbmaj7                        Ebm9
Has something changed, have I just missed the memo?
Bbm7                   Db
Tell me what I don't know
    Fmaj7/Db  Ebm* Fm*
Oh, won't you...
 
 
[Chorus]
Gbmaj7
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
               Db                   Db/Eb     Ebm* Fm*
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Gbmaj7
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
               Db                   Db/Eb     Ebm* Fm*
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Gbmaj7
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
               Db                   Db/Eb     Ebm* Fm*
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Gbmaj7
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
          Db                     Db/Eb      Ebm* Fm*
Oh, I forget myself, I don't want no one else
 
Gbmaj7
 
 
[Verse 2]
              Ebm9            Bbm7
The pressure thuds behind my eyes
                  Db           Fm7/Db              Gbmaj7
You look at me as if it's my fault that we're stood here
    Ebm9                            Bbm7    Db
The cobalt of your scarf has pulled clear
Gbmaj7                     Ebm9
Stealing me traffic cones, smiling at babies
Bbm7               Db
I must admit I wanted you to save me
Gbmaj7                     Ebm9
Now I'm sat on the ground, feeling half crazy
Bbm7                 Db
I don't want you to go
          Ebm* Fm*
Oh, won't you...
 
 
[Chorus]
Gbmaj7
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
               Db                   Db/Eb     Ebm* Fm*
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Gbmaj7
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
               Db                   Db/Eb     Ebm* Fm*
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Gbmaj7
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
               Db                   Db/Eb     Ebm* Fm*
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Gbmaj7
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
          Db                     Db/Eb
Oh, I forget myself, I don't want no one else
 
 
[Bridge]
N.C.
Oh, I forget myself, I don't want no one else
Bbm*
Oh, I forget myself, I don't want no one else
Bbm5
Oh, I forget myself, I don't want no one else
         Ebm* Fm*
Oh, won't you...
 
[Chorus]
Gbmaj7
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
               Db                   Db/Eb    Ebm* Fm*
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Gbmaj7
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
               Db                   Db/Eb    Ebm* Fm*
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Gbmaj7
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
         Db                       Db/Eb
Oh, I forget myself, I don't want no one else
