BREAKDOWN             JACK JOHNSON


Capo 5th Fret



G   Bm   Em   D (x2)


G                Bm
I hope this old train breaks down
Em                   D
Then I could take a walk around
G                   Bm
And, see what there is to see
Em                  D
And time is just a melody


               G
With all the people in the street
         Bm                   
Walk as fast as their feet can take them
Em                   D
I just roll through town


               G
And though my window's got a view, well
      Bm
The frame Im looking through
         Em                   D
Seems to have no concern for now, so for now



Chorus:


G  G/F#
I need this
Em             D 
Old train to breakdown
G  G/F#
Oh please just
Em              D
Let me please breakdown


G   Bm   Em   D (x2)


G             Bm
This engine screams out loud
Em                D
Centipede gonna crawl westbound
G                Bm
So I don't even make a sound
Em                          D
It's gunna sting me when I leave this town
         G
All the people in the street
           Bm
That I'll never get to meet
          Em                    D
If these tracks don't bend somehow
    G
And I got no time
     Bm
That I got to get to
 Em                   D
Where I don't need to be, so I



Chorus


G  
D        C        G
I wanna break on down
But I cant stop now
Let me break on down


D    C
  


         G
But you cant stop nothing
       Bm
If you got no control
         Em
Of the thoughts in your mind
          D
That you kept in, you know
     G
You don't know nothing
        Bm
But you don't need to know
     Em
The wisdoms in the trees
          D
Not the glass windows


     G
You cant stop wishing
        Bm
If you don't let go
     Em
But things that you find
         D
And you lose, and you know
     G
You keep on rolling
        Bm
Put the moment on hold
      Em
The frames too bright
             D
So put the blinds down low


Chorus


G   Bm   Em   D
                I wanna break on down
G   Bm   Em   D
                But I cant stop now
G   Bm   Em   D
G   Bm   Em   D
G



G/F# = 2x0033


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



The song can be played without capo by transposing to C major.


The verse chords would be C Em Am G ( replacing G Bm Em D )


Same for chorus with G/F# transposing to C/B ( x2x010 )
