[Verse 1]
F# D#m
They used to say that boys are tough as nails
F A#m G#
In every way he keeps his heart as guarded as a jail
D#m F
Now things have changed, I feel so old
A# D# G# C#
Like any girl could drag my heart across the coals
[Verse 2]
F# D#m
I was always there in the thick of things
F A#m G#
I always had the heart of every woman on a string
D#m F
The danger zone shone from my eyes
A# D# G# C#
It seemed like every inch I gained became a mile
A
[Chorus]
D
It's not the night reaching in and touching me
G Gm
It's just that breaking hearts ain't what it used to be
D B
It seems that time has killed that cruel streak in me
Em A
And breaking hearts ain't what it used to be
A D
It's not the light shining in and catching me
G Gm
It's just that breaking hearts ain't what it used to be
D B
But time has come and cast a spell on me
Em A D
And breaking hearts ain't what it used to be
[Verse 3]
F# D#m
And now I know what lonely means
F A#m G#
I used to give so little and gain everything
D#m F
The darkest part of every day
A# D# G# C#
Is the shadow of another girl as she turns and walks away
[Verse 4]
F# D#m
Can't say I blame them all for being hurt
F A#m G#
After all, I treated each and every one like dirt
D#m F
Who wants a heart that's never home?
A# D# G# C#
I face the facts and lock myself into a life alone
A
[Chorus]
D
It's not the night reaching in and touching me
G Gm
It's just that breaking hearts ain't what it used to be
D B
It seems that time has killed that cruel streak in me
Em A
And breaking hearts ain't what it used to be
A D
It's not the light shining in and catching me
G Gm
It's just that breaking hearts ain't what it used to be
D B
But time has come and cast a spell on me
Em
And breaking hearts
F#
Breaking hearts
Bm
Breaking hearts
E Em
Breaking hearts
A D
Ain't what it used to be
