Breaking Hearts Aint What It Used To Be

      Gb                        Ebm7
They used to say that boys are tough as nails
          F7                               Bbm   Ab
In every way he keeps his heart as guarded as a jail
                 Ebm                F7
Now things have changed, I feel so old
Bb/D      Eb                 Ab               Db
Like any girl could drag my heart across the coals


[Verse 2]
       Gb                  Ebm7
I was always there in the thick of things
          F7                          Bbm    Ab
I always had the heart of every woman on a string
            Ebm                F7
The danger zone shone from my eyes
Bb/D            Eb            Ab             Db
It seemed like every inch I gained became a mile

A/G


[Chorus]
               D                    Daug
It's not the night reaching in and touching me
                G                             Gm
It's just that breaking hearts ain't what it used to be
               D                          B7
It seems that time has killed that cruel streak in me
     Em7                           A7        A7sus4
And breaking hearts ain't what it used to be

      A7       D                   Daug
It's not the light shining in and catching me
                G                             Gm
It's just that breaking hearts ain't what it used to be
              D               B7
But time has come and cast a spell on me
    Em7                           Em7/A A7 D
And breaking hearts ain't what it used  to be


[Verse 3]
     Gb              Ebm7
And now I know what lonely means
   F                               Bbm  Ab
I used to give so little and gain everything
            Ebm           F7
The darkest part of every day
Bb/D               Eb                 Ab              Db
Is the shadow of another girl as she turns and walks away


[Verse 4]
       Gb                       Ebm7
Can't say I blame them all for being hurt
       F                            Bbm       Ab
After all, I treated each and every one like dirt
             Ebm                F7
Who wants a heart that's never home?
Bb/D        Eb              Ab           Db
I face the facts and lock myself into a life alone

A/G


[Chorus]
               D                    Daug
It's not the night reaching in and touching me
                G                             Gm
It's just that breaking hearts ain't what it used to be
               D                          B7
It seems that time has killed that cruel streak in me
     Em7                           A7        A7sus4
And breaking hearts ain't what it used to be

      A7       D                   Daug
It's not the light shining in and catching me
                G                             Gm
It's just that breaking hearts ain't what it used to be
              D               B7
But time has come and cast a spell on me
    Em7
And breaking hearts
Gb7

Ain't what it used to be
