***My Boy Only Breaks His Favourite***
[Intro]
F Am Em
 
[Verse 1]
            F                       Am
Oh, here we go again, the voices in his head
                 Em              F
Call the rain to end our days of wild
                                       Am
The sickest army doll purchased at the mall
            Em              F
Rivulets descend my plastic smile
F                                  G
But you should've seen him when he first got me
 
 
[Chorus]
F      C                         G      Em
 My boy only breaks his favorite toys, toys, ohh
F         C                      G       Em
 I'm queen of sand castles he destroys, ohh, ohh
F
 'Cause it fit too right
C
 Puzzle pieces in the dead of night
G                                          Em
 Should've known it was a matter of time, ohh, ohh
F      C                         G      Em
 My boy only breaks his favorite toys, ohh
 
 
***Coney Island***
 
 
[Verse 1]
Em
  Break my soul in two looking for you
              F
  But you're right here
G
  If I can't relate to you anymore
                   Am        F
  Then who am I related to?
Em
  And if this is the long haul
               F
  How'd we get here so soon?
G
  Did I close my fist around something delicate?
      Am             F
  Did I shatter you?
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
          Am                           F
  And I'm sitting on a bench in Coney Island
                          C
  Wondering where did my baby go?
                                          Em
  The fast times, the bright lights, the merry go
  F                        G
  Sorry for not making you my centerfold
 
 
[Chorus]
           Am
  Over and over
  F
  Lost again with no surprises
  C/E
  Disappointments close your eyes
      Em                 F
  And it gets colder and colder
                G
  When the sun goes down
 
[Bridge]
Am                         F
  Were you waiting at our old spot
 
  In the tree line
         C
  By the gold clock
 
  Did I leave you hanging every single day?
Em                         F
  Were you standing in the hallway
                         G
  With a big cake, happy birthday
 
  Did I paint your bluest skies the darkest grey?
        Am
  A universe away
              F
  And when I got into the accident
      C
  The sight that flashed before me was your face
Em                                     G
  But when I walked up to the podium I think that I forgot to say your name
 
 
***MBOBHFT***
 
 
[Bridge]
 C
 Just say when
      G
 I'd play again
        Dm             F
 He was my best friend down at the sandlot
   C                 G
 I felt more when we played pretend
           Dm
 Than with all these Kens
       F                    C
 Cause he took me out of my box,
 G                 Dm
 Stole my tortured heart
 F                     C
 Left all these broken parts
 G                  Dm
 Told me I'm better off
         F
 But I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not
 
[Chorus]
F      C                         G      Em
 My boy only breaks his favorite toys, toys, ohh
F         C                      G       Em
 I'm queen of sand castles he destroys, ohh, ohh
F
 'Cause I knew too much
C
 There was danger in the heat of my touch
G                                     Em
 He saw forever so he smashed it up, ohh, ohh
F      C                         G      Em
 My boy only breaks his favorite toys, ohh, ohh
F C G Em
F  C                           G             Em
     only breaks his favorite toys, ohh, ohh
