Lyrics and Chords


[As performed by Kelly Clarkson]

{Intro}
Da-da-da d-dah da, da-da-da d-dah da
Da da da da da da da

/ Am G/B C F / Am G F Fmaj7 /

{Repeat}

Grew up in a small town and when the rain would fall down
I'd just stare out my window
Dreaming of what could be and if I'd end up happy
I would pray 

/ Am G/B C F / Am G F Fmaj7 / : 

Trying hard to reach out but when I tried to speak out           
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here but something felt so wrong here
So I'd pray I could break away 

... / Am G F - Am G Dsus2 - F - /

{Refrain}
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky, I'll
Make a wish, take a chance, make a change, and break away
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I love, I'll
Take a risk, take a chance, make a change, and break away      

/ C - G - / Am - F - / C - G - Am G F - / :

{Intro}

Wanna feel the warm breeze, sleep under a palm tree       
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get onboard a fast train, travel on a jet plane
Far away and break away

{Refrain}

Buildings with a hundred floors, swinging 'round revolving doors 
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me but
I gotta keep movin' on, movin' on, fly away, break away 

/ G - C F / / G - C F D2 - F G /

{As Refrain}
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye, I gotta
Take a risk, take a chance, make a change, and break away
Out of the darkness & into the sun 
But I won't forget the place I come from, I gotta
Take a risk, take a chance, make a change, and break away
Break away, break away

... / Am G F - Am G Fmaj7 - /
