A Bm7
Break, break, shake away, break... break away,
Em7 A7 Dmaj7 D
Feeling what...feeling what I wanna do,
Bm7 E7 A7sus4 A7 B7 B7/F#
Oo - ooo---, oo - oo, ooo----, oo - oo, oo---, oo - oo!
Em A7 F#7 Bm Bm/A
Time will not wait for me, time is my desti - ny,
E E7 A Amaj7 G
Why change the part of me that has to be free?
G/F# Em A7 F#7 Bm Bm/A
The love that passed me by, I found no reason why,
E E7 A Amaj7 G
But now each day is filled with the love,
G/F# Em Gmaj7 Esus4 E
That very same love that passed me by, and that is why-----...
A Bm7
... I can break away from that lonely life,
Em7 A7 Dmaj7 D
And I can do what I wanna do,
Bm7 E7 A7sus4 A7 B7 B7/F#
And break away from that empty life, and my world is new!

Em A7 F#7 Bm Bm/A
When I laid down on my bed, I heard voices in my head,
E E7 A Amaj7 G
Telling me now, hey, it's only a dream,
G/F# Em A7 F#7 Bm Bm/A
The more I thought of it, I had been out of it,
E E7 A Amaj7 G
And here's the answer I found in - stead,
G/F# Em Gmaj7
Found out it was in my head, found out it was in my head,
Esus4 E
Found out it was in my head-----!
A Bm7
...And I can break away to the better life,
Em7 A7 Dmaj7 D
Where the shackles never hold me down,
Bm7 E7 A7sus4
I'm gonna make a way for each happy day,
A7 B7 B7/F#
As my life turns around!
G G/F# Em
Oh, boy, you jump for joy when you... break away!
G G/F# Em
Break away---------, break away--------!
G G/F# Em
Break away---------, break away--------!
G G/F# Em
Feel the vibrations in all the sensa - tions, breaking away!
G G/F# Em
Feel the vibrations in all the sensa - tions, breaking away!
(Suggestion for coda)
G G/F# E
Break away-------!
