Breakaway chords by Bruce Springsteen

G

                                                   C
Had a meeting on the decks with a light blue Monterey.

          G
To breakaway.

 G
Sonny was playing all his cards last night, in a hotel room,

                    C                 G
He dealt his life away,  to breakaway.

            D                                G
   Now the promises and the lies, they demand it.

            Fmaj7
   Let the hearts that have been broken,  stand,

            G      A      Csus9        D        G
   As the price you pay,  to breakaway,  oh breakaway,

                                            C         G
   Oh ronde, ronde, ronde, ray,    oh breakaway.

 G
Janie slipped from behind the bar last night.

                                                   C                 G
Cashed out and walked onto the streets, rainy and gray,  to breakaway.

 G                                                                       C
Janie slid into a car last night, in a parking lot, she gave her soul away,

           G
To breakaway.


   (Chorus)
 G
Bobby lay, beneath a sheet of stars last night,

                                                    C                G
His back on the blacktop, still warm from the heat of day,  breakaway,

 G
Bobby went down, hard last night,  saw a shooting star,

                                C       G
As the evening light, slipped away.     (Chorus)
