[Intro]
Am E/G# G D/F# G  x2


[Verse 1]
Am
  Beneath the fog is a
E/G#
city I know too well
G
  And it melts like ice
       D/F#       G
and it burns like hell
Am
  And the freeways always
 E/G#
stopped at 6 o'clock
G
  So we're leaving without
            D/F#
you whether you
           G
like it or not no no no


[Chorus 1]
Am                 E/G#
  It's breaking me down
              G
it's breaking me down
              D/F#
It's breaking me down
     G
down down down down
Am                 E/G#
  It's breaking me down
              G
it's breaking me down
              D/F#
It's breaking me down
     G
down down down down


[Verse 2]
Am
  And the wind blows the
E/G#
leaves off the trees
G
  Another sign of spring
         D/F#          G
bringing winter to its knees
Am
  And they say the grass
   E/G#
is greener on the other side
G
  Well I want to know all about
    D/F#
the darkness that lights
     G
your eyes cause it's


[Chorus 2]
Am                 E/G#
  It's breaking me down
              G
it's breaking me down
              D/F#
It's breaking me down
     G
down down down down


[Bridge]
Em        Bm
  And the change
      Em            Bm
Is so constant over me
Em            Bm
  Take me and show me
    Em        Bm
Who I need to be


[Instrumental]
Am E/G# G D/F# G


[Verse 3]
Am
  The asphalt a little bit darker
    E/G#
and it helps you to remember
    G                 D/F#
when The rain fell in sweet
  G         Am
November and  Be careful who you
                        E/G#
fall in love with cause someone
                       G
somewhere won't approve And the
                       D/F#
prettiest girls always seem
              G
to keep their eyes n you


[Chorus 3]
Am                 E/G#
  It's breaking me down
              G
it's breaking me down
              D/F#
It's breaking me down
     G
down down down down
Am                 E/G#
  It's breaking me down
              G
