Chords

 G
Sonny abandoned his car last night,

                                                  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)
