BREAK AWAY
Don McLeod, Ali Milner


C-G-F-G-C
LIKE A BIRD IN A CAGE,
SHE IS WAITING TO FLY AWAY
WATCHINIG HER DREAMS FRAY
THERE’S NOTHING LEFT TO SAY
THERE’S NO REASON TO STAY

SHE’S BEEN FEELING HELD BACK
THE ROAD IS LONG AND SHE’S LOSING TRACK
ALL HER BACKS ARE PACKED
SHE’LL TAKE ONE LAST LOOK BACK
BEFORE SHE ESCAPES

CHORUS (C^G7^F-C-C^G7^F-F^G7^G-C)
BREAK AWAY, BREAK AWAY,
SPREAD THOSE WINGS, LEARN TO SING
HONEY JUST BREAK AWAY

BRUISED BATTERED AND TORN
CAUGHT IN THE EYE OF THE STORM
SHE’S BEEN LOOKING FOR MORE
COULDN’T WALK OUT THE DOOR
SHE WAS TOO AFRAID

VIEWED IT IN BLACK AND WHITE
BUT THE GREYS CAME OUT ALMOST EVERY NIGHT
NO MATTER WHO’S WRONG OR RIGHT
SHE’S NOT STAYING TO FIGHT
SHE’S NO LONGER AFRAID

CHORUS (C^G7^F-C-C^G7^F-F^G7^G-C)
BREAK AWAY, BREAK AWAY,
SPREAD THOSE WINGS, LEARN TO SING
HONEY JUST BREAK AWAY

BRIDGE (Am-F-Dm-G)
WHEN THE STORMS PASS TO SEA
AND THE CLOUDS PART SHE SEES
THERE’S A WIDE OPEN SKY
NOW IT’S TIME FOR HER TO FLY

CHORUS (C^G7^F-C-C^G7^F-F^G7^G-C)
BREAK AWAY, BREAK AWAY,
SPREAD THOSE WINGS, LEARN TO SING
OH SPREAD THOSE WINGS, LEARN TO SING
YOU’VE GOTTA SPREAD THOSE WINGS, LEARN TO SING
HONEY JUST BREAK AWAY
