[Cm] I used to think [Bb] love was sweet; [Ab] Used to think we’re [Bb] so complete.

Narration 1:

(Don’t get on [Bb] the line…) [Cm], [Bb], [Bb]…
You make me cry but that’s for sure; can’t take no more.”
Chorus 1:
You’re breaking my [Cm] heart; don’t walk a- [Bb] way Suzanne,
Don’t [Bb] go… don’t tear it a- [Cm] part;
You’re breaking my [Cm] heart; don’t walk a- [Bb] way Suzanne,
You’re [Bb] all… you’re all that I’ve [Cm] got!
Post Chorus 1:
Here’s my con- [Ab] fession, you’re all that I [Bb] need;

So don’t walk a- [Ab] way… don’t walk a- [G] way, Su- [Cm]* zanne!

The shadows are [Bb] closing in; [Ab] The tide is high to [Bb] try again and a- [Cm] gain.
