F#m7         C#m
In a modern culture,
     A                 E
My friend you must be careful,
           D      E
They've a million,
         D      E
Ways to kill you

         F#m7     C#m
In this dangerous world,
           A              E
There's an art to growing old,
         D     E
Taking chances,
       D     F
Magic Happens

Chorus:
         A           Bm
One mistake's all it takes
          D               F
And your life has come undone,
       A                 D              F
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl
         A                Bm
It's a drag, I know it's hard,
            D            F
But you're tearing her apart,
       A                 D              F
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl

I am afraid
That there's much to be afraid of
Here today and
Gone tomorrow

Don't end up in the gutter
Just like the one before
You're just the same
Such a loser

Chorus

You've got to let her go because you're breaking up
The girl
The girl

Chorus

Breaking up the girl
Breaking up the girl

Girl, ah
