Breakaway

REO Speedwagon

tom:

        A               D/F#
Another day in the city
        A                  D/F#
Another dancer to the music
    D                               A        D/F#
But lately, all the music sounds so strange
      A                          D/F#
Well, some songs have no meaning
    A                       D/F#
And some songs try too hard
          D
Tryin' to say it all
                  A
And end up saying nothin'


[Chorus]
      F#m       E          A
Well, maybe the words ring true
       F#m       E
What's right for them
       A
May be wrong for you
           F#m  E   C#m   Bm A F#m
So come out of the jungle
   A F#m A              A F#m A
Of another man's dreams
           F#m  E    C#m      Bm A F#m
And if you come to a clearin'
   A                  D   C#m
As lonely as it seems
     Bm                A
It's never too late to breakaway
A
To breakaway


[Verse 2]
        A                  D/F#
Another day lost in livin'
            A                  D/F#
And another same old beginning
    D                             A
And knowing where and why we went wrong
A                         D/F#
Someone says I've changed
    A                      D/F#
And someone says that I've remained
       D
In the same place
                            A
For maybe just a little too long


[Chorus]
      F#m       E          A
Well, maybe the words ring true
       F#m       E
What's right for them
       A
May be wrong for you
           F#m  E   C#m   Bm A F#m
So come out of the jungle
   A F#m A              A F#m A
Of another man's dreams
           F#m  E    C#m      Bm A F#m
And if you come to a clearin'
   A                  D  C#m
As lonely as it seems
     Bm                A
It's never too late to breakaway
     E         D       A
It's never too late to breakaway

[Chorus]
      F#m       E          A
Well, maybe the words ring true
       F#m       D
What's right for them
       A
May be wrong for you
           F#m  E   C#m   Bm A F#m
So come out of the jungle
   A F#m A              A F#m A
Of another man's dreams
           F#m  E    C#m      Bm A F#m
And if you come to a clearin'
   A                  D D/E
As lonely as it seems
     E                 A
It's never too late to breakaway, oh no
     E         D       A
It's never too late to breakaway
A
To breakaway
A
To breakaway
A
To breakaway
