Communication Breakdown 
E
We never walk, we never talk 
                  E7         A         Am
we never find the time to be close again 
         E
There it goes again 
                   B                        E
Communication breakdown, communication breakdown 
Too much concern for money to burn 
too many things to do now you don’t need me 
and I don’t need you 
Communication breakdown, communication breakdown 
       C#m
One by one they fail.
        F#6                          B
Now the leaves are low, cling to the ground 
Communication breakdown, communication breakdown
                 A                 B7           E
Too much too soon too much temptation, in a hurry 
       A       B7              E
It’s a sad situation, too much worry. 
      A               E
I can tell that it’s over now 
Communication breakdown, communication breakdown
E               D    A      E            D    A      E
there it goes Communication breakdown, communication breakdown
          A
when it’s right, it’s so right 
          E
when it’s wrong, it’s so wrong 
          F#6                           B
when it’s gone, it’s all gone, it’s too late 
Communication breakdown, communication breakdown
      A               E
I can tell that it’s over now 
   D    A      E            D    A      E          Bm  E
