Break it to me gently
Let me down the ea - sy way
Make me feel you still love me
If it's just, just for one more day
Break it to me gently so my tears
My tears won't fall too fast
If you must go, then go slowly
Let me love you 'til the last
The love we shared, oh, so long
It's such a big part of me
If you must take, your love a ? way
Take it gradual - ly
And break it to me gently, give me time
Oh, give me a little time to ease the pain
If you must go, then go slowly
?Cause I'll never love a - gain
G#m7 ( tacet ) F#7
If you must take your love a - way
take it gradual ? ly and
Break it to me gently, give me time
Oh, give me a little time to ease the pain
Love me just a little longer
'Cause I'll never, ever love a - gain
G7 C7 ( tacet ) F Bb Bbm F
?Cause, I'll never, no never love a - gain
This is my interpretation of the song and is what I hear. Since
U-G doesn't always include the correct chord voicings, I have
included all of them in this transcription. Please feel free to
experiment with your own chord voicings.
This song has a higher difficulty level due to the chords used.
I have attempted to keep the voicings as simple as possible,
while still maintaining the tone and flavor of the song.
