Breakeven Lyrics

I will be playing this song for a gig in which my band only consists of a
drummer, vocalist and guitarist (that'd be me). The problem? This song needs
at least two guitarists.
So, I wrote this tab (A.) For other bands who are in the same dilemma I am
(one guitar and a well-layered piece) and (B.)so I could have a printed copy
of my version.
Place your capo on the 3rd fret on the top 5 strings, leaving low E open so
it looks like this:

Chords Used:
Intro:
Now here's where the capo-ed trickery bit comes in. Without the capo, you'd
play it like this:
But since you've already got the capo on the third fret on the G string, you
play it like this:
Verse:
Now, during the second half of the verse, you switch to chords; The whole
reason why your guitar was capo-ed!
Her best days will be some of my worst
She finally met a man that's gonna put her first
While I'm wide awake she's got no trouble sleeping
'Cuz when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven (even, no)
Chorus:
What am I supposed to do when the best part of me was always you
What am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up and you're ok
I'm falling to pieces ya
I'm falling to pieces
Verse 2:
Play chords on that final line:
'Cuz when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven
Chorus:
What am I going to do when the best part of me was always you
What am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up and you're ok
I'm falling to pieces yeah
I'm falling to pieces yeah
I'm falling to pieces yeah
I'm falling to pieces yeah
Bridge: Em7 D G Cadd9 x2
Verse 3:
You got his heart and my heart and none of the pain
You took your suitcase, I took the blame.
Now I'm trying to make sense of what little remains, oh
Cadd9 (strum all the way through this line)
Cos you left me with no love, no love to my name.
Chorus:
What am I going to do when the best part of me was always you
What am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up and you're okay
I'm falling to pieces yeah
I'm falling to pieces yeah
I'm falling to pieces yeah
I'm falling to pieces yeah
Outro:
Cadd9 G D Em7 whilst fading out OR
They both work fine.
