E                            B              C#m
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?
A                             B
Why would you wanna take our love
and tear it all apart now?
E                             B          C#m
Why would you wanna make the very first scar?
A                        B                  A
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?

A                           E
Maybe I should've seen the signs
E
Should've read the writing on the wall
A                                     E
And realized by the distance in your eyes
E
That I would be the one to fall

F#m                 E                   F#m
No matter what you say I still can't believe
                      A                 B
That you would walk away it don't take sense
to me but

Chorus:
E                            B              C#m
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?
A                             B
Why would you wanna take our love
and tear it all apart now?
E                             B          C#m
Why would you wanna make the very first scar?
A                        B                  A
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?

A            E        B  A
It's not unbroken anymore
(it's not unbroken anymore)
          B                          E
How do I get it back the way it was before

Chorus - x2
