[Intro]
Bb     Cm Bb

{Verse 1]
F          Bb                       Cm
You know I never been too good at math
                    Bb                  Cm          Eb
I use my fingers to count (She use her fingers to count)
           Bb
But the result of our equation
          Cm              Bb                  Cm
Isn't too hard to figure out (It don't take a genius)
           Dm7
I gave you seven good years
N.C.
To make up for seven bad
        Eb  Cm
I'd say   I paid off
         F
Any debt I might've had

[Chorus 1]
           Bb
A little lost
N.C.
A little gained
N.C.
In the end
F             Bb
We've broken even

[Verse 2]
N.C.
Every night when I'm on my way home
Cm                           Bb                                   Cm
   I wonder what I'm gonna find (when she walks through the door)
              Bb
You're either burnin' or freezin' me out
        Cm              Bb      Cm
You're made of fire and ice

  Dm7
I know I've done wrong
N.C.
But you matched me with one
Bb   Eb                  F7
So I am absolved, I am free, I am done

[Chorus 2]
       Bb
Up and down
N.C.
Back and forth
                F7
No more keeping score
              Bb
We've broken even
C            D7
  See I was waiting
N.C.
Til' something better came along
   Gm
To give me a good reason for leaving
      D7
I was wasting precious time
                Gm
And sacrificing happiness

(Yes she was)

[Bridge 1]
          D              D7
But true love doesn't punish
       Gm           C7
And it does not possess
       Cm                     Dm
And leaving you has sure been worth the price
Eb                        F
Worth the price of loneliness

[Verse 3]
          Bb                      Cm
Now I was trapped like a prisoner
                        Bb
Who had no lock on her cell
                        Cm    F
(She had no lock on her cell, YEA)
            Bb
But now I'm springing the joint and
    Cm              Bb            Cm
I'm no longer under your spell

[Bridge 2]
Dm7
Your wrong plus mine have come out alright
    Eb       Cm7               F
So I have no shame when I lay down at night
               Bb
You don't owe apologies
                  Bb7     F7
You don't owe a thing to me
               Bb    Cm
We've broken even

[Chorus 3]
       Eb
Up and down
Dm
Back and forth
        Cm7     F
No more keeping score we've
        Bb      Cm
Broken even
         Eb
A little lost
  Dm
A little gained
       F
In the end we've
        Bb
Broken even
