his cards last night
In a hotel room [D]he [G]dealt his life [C]away
To breakaway

[Verse 3]
[G]Now the [D]promises and the
lies they de[G]mand it
Let [Dm]the hearts that have been broken
[C]stand as the [Em]price [A]you [C]pay[D]
To [G]breakaway, [D]oh, [G]breakaway,

[G]Janie slid into [D]a c[G]ar last night
(sha la la la, sha la la la)
In a parking [D]lot she [G]gave

sha la la la)
[G]To breakaway (sha la la la,
[D]sha[G] la la la)

[Verse 6]
Now the [D]promises and the

To [C]breakaway (sha la la la, sha la la la)
[G]To breakaway (sha la la la)
