Lyrics

You (F)tell me that you’re (Ab7)leav ing, I can’t be lieve it’s (C7)true.

girl, there’s just no (Dm7)liv ing with out (Gm7)you.

Don’t take your (F)love

a way from (C7)me,

don’t you (Dm7)leave my heart in (Gm7)mis er (C7)y.

If you (Bm7)go, (A7)then (Dm7)I’ll be (G7)blue.

(Gm7)break ing (Am7)up is (Bb)hard (Gm7)to do.

Re mem ber (F)when

you (Gm7)held me (C7)tight

and you (Dm7)kissed me all (Gm7)through the (C7)night?

Think of (Bm7)all (A7)that (Dm7)we’ve been through,

(Gm7)break ing (Am7)up is (Bb)hard to (F)do.

They say that break ing (Fm7)up

(Bb7)is

(Fm7)hard to (Bb7)do.

Now I know, I know that it’s (Ab7)true.

Don’t (Ab7)say that (Ebm7)this is the end.

In stead of break ing up I wish that (C7)we were mak ing up a gain, (Db7)we were mak ing up a gain.

I beg of (F)you,

don’t say good bye.

Can’t we (Dm7)give our love a brand new (C9)try?

Yeah,

come on, (B)babe,

let’s start a (Gm7)new, ’cause break ing (Am7)up is (Bb6)hard (C9)to do.

(CN.C.)Don’t take your (F)love

a way from (C7)me,

don’t you (Dm7)leave my heart in (Gm7)mis er (C7)y.

If you (Bm7)go, (A7)then (Dm7)I’ll be (G7)blue.

(Gm7)break ing (Am7)up is (Bb)hard (Gm7)to do.

Re mem ber (F)when

you (Gm7)held me (C7)tight

and you (Dm7)kissed me all (Gm7)through the (C7)night?

Think of (Bm7)all (A7)that (Dm7)we’ve been through,

(Gm7)break ing (Am7)up is (Bb)hard to (F)do.

They say that break ing (Fm7)up

(Bb7)is

(Fm7)hard to (Bb7)do.

Now I know, I know that it’s (Ab7)true.

Don’t (Ab7)say that (Ebm7)this is the end.

In stead of break ing up I wish that (C7)we were mak ing up a gain, (Db7)we were mak ing up a gain.

I beg of (F)you,

don’t say good bye.

Can’t we (Dm7)give our love a brand new (C9)try?

Yeah,

come on, (B)babe,

(CN.C.)Don’t take your break ing (Am7)up is (Bb6)hard (C7)to do,

’cause (Gm7)break ing (Gm9)up is (C9)hard

(C7)to

(F)do.
