Written by Bruce Springsteen
G Sonny abandoned his car last night, C Had a meeting on the decks with a light blue Monterey. G To breakaway. G Sonny was playing all his cards last night, in a hotel room, C G he dealt his life away, to breakaway. D G Now the promises and the lies, they demand it. Fmaj7 Let the hearts that have been broken, stand, G A Csus9 D G As the price you pay, to breakaway, oh breakaway, C G Oh ronde, ronde, ronde, ray, oh breakaway. G Janie slipped from behind the bar last night. C G Cashed out and walked onto the streets, rainy and gray, to breakaway. G C Janie slid into a car last night, in a parking lot, she gave her soul away, G to breakaway. G Bobby lay, beneath a sheet of stars last night, C G His back on the blacktop, still warm from the heat of day, breakaway, G Bobby went down, hard last night, saw a shooting star, C G As the evening light, slipped away.
