Capo 3
[Verse]
CBaby you're the breaker
Of a hundred thousand hearts or so I'm Gtold
You were Amraised just like your mother
She was brazen beauty good as Ggold
CWe grew up together
But could never quite remember the Gsame years
They're Amrolling by so fast
No one's got a chance to stop for Gair
And you Ccry yourself to sleep at night
You cry yourself awake and back and Gforth
And pray the Amrum and coke & smokes
Will make you so much braver for it Gthey won't
There's a Dmstorm on this hoCrizon
The Dmstorm that's in your Gheart
[Chorus]
You Amsaid your years were Cgoing wrong
But GI remember Cnot too Emlong aAmgo
When you were Cmy girl we were Gdevils on our bikes
AmYou held your hands aCround the stars
While GI was catching Cbees in Emjars for Amyou
I'd chase you Cwith them
And we'd Grun like holy hell
[Verse]
CBaby you're the breaker
Of a hundred thousand hearts including Gmine
But I Amswear I'm better for it
You put me back together just in Gtime
And it's Ctrue my love, we're helpless
When the stillness comes and fills us all with Gsound
Of a Dmstorm on the hAmorizon
The Dmstorm that's in your Gheart
[Chorus]
You Amsaid your years were Cgoing wrong
But GI remember Cnot too Emlong aAmgo
When you were Cmy girl we were Gdevils on our bikes
AmYou held your hands aCround the stars
While GI was catching Cbees in Emjars for Amyou
I'd chase you Cwith them
And we'd Grun like holy hell
[Outro]
The Csunlight
In the Amsunlight
In the Dmsunlight
In the Gsunlight
The Csunlight
In the Amsunlight
In the Dmsunlight
In the Gsunlight
End on C

Capo 3

[Verse]

Baby you're the breaker

Of a hundred thousand hearts or so I'm told

You were raised just like your mother

She was brazen beauty good as gold

We grew up together

But could never quite remember the same years

They're rolling by so fast

No one's got a chance to stop for air

And you cry yourself to sleep at night

You cry yourself awake and back and forth

And pray the rum and coke & smokes

Will make you so much braver for it they won't

Dm C

There's a storm on this horizon

Dm G

The storm that's in your heart

[Chorus]

Am C

You said your years were going wrong

G C Em Am

But I remember not too long ago

C G

When you were my girl we were devils on our bikes

Am C

You held your hands around the stars

G C Em Am

While I was catching bees in jars for you

I'd chase you with them

And we'd run like holy hell

[Verse]

Baby you're the breaker

Of a hundred thousand hearts including mine

But I swear I'm better for it

You put me back together just in time

And it's true my love, we're helpless

When the stillness comes and fills us all with sound

Dm Am

Of a storm on the horizon

Dm G

The storm that's in your heart

[Chorus]

Am C

You said your years were going wrong

G C Em Am

But I remember not too long ago

C G

When you were my girl we were devils on our bikes

Am C

You held your hands around the stars

G C Em Am

While I was catching bees in jars for you

I'd chase you with them

And we'd run like holy hell

[Outro]

The sunlight

In the sunlight

The sunlight

In the sunlight

End on
