 But you gave  me up long  ago.
Remember  the time we went dancing -
 you sat there 'til one forty-five
 and left me to ride away begging
 and gasping  for air  to survive.
But  now that I'm arguably older
 and though  it is winter once more,
I'd  jump if you dialed my number,
 forgetting my heart on the floor.
 And it's better,  better,  better,  to be the breaker.
A  city of too many women
grabbing  for pieces of men,
cherishing  every beginning,
 and falling apart in the end.
 It's better,  better,  better,  to be the breaker.

But you g[A]ave me up [C#]long a[Dm]go.

[Dm]Remember the time we went dancing -
you sat there 'til one forty-f[A7]ive

and left me to ride away begging
and g[A]asping for [C#]air to sur[Dm]vive.

[Gm]But now that I'm arguably o[Dm]lder
and [Gm]though it is winter once m[Dm]ore,
[Gm]I'd jump if you dialed my n[Dm]umber,
forgetting my heart on the fl[A7]oor.
And it's be[Gm]tter, b[C#]etter, bet[A7]ter, to be the brea[Dm]ker.

[Gm]A city of too many w[Dm]omen
[Gm]grabbing for pieces of m[Dm]en,
[Gm]cherishing every beg[Dm]inning,
and falling apart in the e[A7]nd.
It's be[Gm]tter, b[C#]etter, be[A7]tter, to be the br[Dm]eaker.
