Break Your Heart

Barenaked Ladies

 GD
The bravest thing I've ever done
 Am7D
Was to run away and hide
 GDCD
But not this time, not this time        
 GD
And the weakest thing I've ever done
 Am7D
Was to stay right by your side
 GDCD
Just like this time and every time      
 AmCD
I couldn't tell you I was happy you were gone
 CDCD
So I lied and said that I missed you when we were apart 
 AmCD
I couldn't tell you so I had to lead you on
 GDGDCD
But I didn't mean to break your heart.            

 GD
And if I always seemed distracted,
 Am7D
Like my mind is somewhere else
 GDCD
That's because it's true, yes it's true        
 GD
It's the stupid pride that makes me feel
 Am7D
Like I have to follow through
 GDCD
Even half-assedly, loving you          
 AmDCD
Why must I always speak in terms of cowardice?
 Am7
When I guess I should have just come out and told
 D
You right from the start
 AmDCD
Why must I always tell you all I want is this?
 CDGDAm7D
I guess cause I didn't want to break your heart.                   

 D
And you said
 Am
What'd  you think I that I was gonna do?
 Am
Curl up and die just because of you?
 D
I'm not that weak, you know
 Am
What'd you think that I was gonna do?
 Am
Try to make you love me as much as I love you?
 D
How could you be so low?
 GDCD
You arrogant man,         
 EmDCD
What do you think that I am?           
 AmD
My heart will be fine  
 AmD
Just stop wasting my time

 GD
And now I know that you will be okay
 Am7D
And that I got what I want
 GD
And that's rid of you
 CD
Good-bye
 GD
And its not cause I'll be missing you
 Am7D
That makes me fall apart
 GD
It's just that I didn't mean to break
 Am7D
No, I didn't mean to break
 CD
No, I didn't mean to break
 GDCD
Your heart                      
 GDCD
Your heart
