Breakaway Tab

by Kelly Clarkson


This is my first tab, and it doesn't seem to agree with any of the other versions
submitted, but this one sounds right to me, so...see what you think.

Chords:  D (000232)   A (002220)  B#m (004432)  G (320033)

Intro:
     B#m   (2x)

Verse 1:
                         
Grew up in a small town, and when the rain would fall down
B#m                     
I'd just stare out my window
                          
Dreamin' of what could be and if I'd end up happy
B#m       
I would pray.
                         
Tryin' hard to reach out, but when I tried to speak out
B#m                    
Felt like no one could hear me.
                      
Wanted to belong here, but something felt so wrong here
B#m                 B#m      
So I prayed. I could break away.

Chorus:
                             
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly.
B#m                        
I'll do what it takes 'til I touch the sky and I'll
                                             B#m       
Take a risk, take a chance, make a change, and break away
                         
Out of the darkness and into the sun,
B#m                    
But I won't forget the ones that I love, I'll
                                             B#m   
Take a risk, take a chance, make a change, and break away.

(Play intro chords)2x

Verse 2: (same chords)
Wanna feel the warm breeze, sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean. 
Get on board a fast train, drive a large airplane
Far away. And break away.

Chorus

Bridge:
                                  
Buildings with a hundred floors, swingin' and revolving doors
B#m                              
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me, but
                               B#m             
Gotta keep movin' on, movin' on. Fly away, break away.

Chorus
