Did you think    that your smile,
F                                 F G Am
   Could hide what's on your mind?
                  D
No matter how I tried,
         Dm              F/G G
I just couldn't be so blind.
            Csus4 C              Csus2 C
We've been close     but people grow,
F                             F G/E Am
  And they sometimes grow apart.
                  D
There's just one thing I ask you,
Dm                             F/G G
   If you've had a change of heart.

 F              F/G
Break it to me gently,
        Em                    Asus4 A
If you have to, then tell me lies.
 Dm             F/G
Break it to me gently,
          Cmaj7               Gm7/C
At least leave me with my pride.
 F               F/G
Try to spare my feelings,
        Em                Asus4 A
If the feelings have to die.
 Dm             F
Break it to me gently,
       Dm      F/G      C
If you have to say goodbye.

I'm not ashamed  to admit,
F                     F G/E Am
  I really hurt inside.
                 D
After all these are my feelings,
Dm                           F/G G
   Why should I make them hide?
      Csus4 C           Csus C
But I won't   hold you back,
 F                                  F G/E Am
There'll be no pulling on your sleeve.
             D
Just let me down easy,
Dm9                         F/G G
  And go softly when you leave.

 F              F/G

Break it to me gently,

At least leave me with my pride.

 Dm             F
Break it to me gently,

If you have to say goodbye.

You always knew that you had my heart,
      Gm7       C7              F
It's still yours, if you wanna take it.
G               Am        Em
   But when you go, as I know you must,
    F   D/F#          G      Ab
Be gentle when your breaking.
