C#m
Donʼt you wanna go for a ride?
Just keep your hands inside
And make the most out of life,
                          F#7
Now donʼt you take it for granted.
C#m
Life is like a mean machine;
It made a mess out of me,
It left me caught between
                           F#7
Like an angry dream, I was stranded,
I was stranded.

           A
   And Iʼm steady, but Iʼm starting to shake;
         B
   And I donʼt know how much more I can take.

   C#m
     Well, this is it now, evʼrybody get down;
     A
     This is all I can take,
     B
     This is how a heart breaks.
  C#m
     You take a hit now, you feel it break down,
     A
     Make you stay wide awake:
     B                           C#m
     This is how a heart breaks.

Donʼt you wanna go for a ride
Down to the other side,
Feel so good you could cry?
Now wonʼt you do what I told you?
I remember when you used to be shy.
Yeah, once we were so fine, you and I;
Now why you gotta make it so hard on me?
Hey, itʼs hard on me!

   And Iʼm sorry, but itʼs not a mistake;
   And Iʼm running but youʼre getting away.

     Well, this is it now, evʼrybody get down;
     This is all I can take,
     This is how a heart breaks.
     You take a hit now, you feel it break down,
     Make you stay wide awake:
                                 F#9
     This is how a heart breaks.
     Well, this is how a heart breaks.

Instrumental: C#m B A B B C#m A B

C#m     B       A        B       C#m
Youʼre not the best thing that I knew;
         B                 A
Never was, never cared too much
        B             C#m
For all this hanging around.
     B        A        B        C#m
Itʼs just the same thing all the time:
         B
Never get what I want,
A                  B               C#m
Never get too close to the end of a line.
           B        A        B       F#sus4
And youʼre just the same thing that I knew
Back before the time when I was learning the ropes.
