Breakdown Jack Johnson

C / G / Am / G (2 TIMES)

C                        G
I hope this old train breaks down
Am                         G
Then I could take a walk around
C                                 G
And, see what there is to see
Am                      G
And time is just a melody
C
All the people in the street
G
Walk as fast as their feet can take them
Am                           G
I just roam through town
C
And though my windows got a view
G
The frame im looking through
Am                                                 G
Seems to have no concern for me now

So for now
C   G
I, need this here
Am               G
Old train to breakdown
C           G
Oh, please just
Am                    G
Let me please breakdown

C                      G
This engine screams out loud
Am                                G
Sayin the beat gunna crawl westbound
C                           G
So I dont even make a sound
Am                                              G
Cause its gunna sting me when I leave this town
C
All the people in the street
              G
That i'll never get to meet
Am                                   G
If these don't bend somehow
C
And I got no time
           G
That I got to get to
Am                                   G
Where I dont need to be

So I

     C      G

Old train to breakdown
C                 G
Oh, please just
Am                    G
Let me please breakdown
C     G

                                  C
I wanna break on down

C / G / Am / G
                           C
But I cant stop now

C / G / Am / G (2 TIMES)

C
But you cant stop nothing
G
If you got no control
Am
Of the thoughts in your mind
Fm
That you kept in, you know
C
You dont know nothing
G
But you dont need to know
Am
The wisdoms in the trees
G
Not the glass windows
C
You cant stop wishing
G
If you dont let go
Am
But things that you find
G
And you lose, and you know
C
You keep on rolling
G
Put the moment on hold
Am
The frames too bright
G
So put the blinds down low
