For this song I worked out the electric solo and then went back and
did my best on the acoustic lead-in. I'm pretty sure that the solo is
correct(although extraordinarily easy) but I'm not certain about the
lead-in. So even if it's not exactly the way that Gordon plays it,it sounds
pretty close. You be the judge. If you work out a different way of playing
it, or if you just have questions or comments, e-mail me at *

Lyrics:
Now every once in awhile
There's a crack in my smile
Dark voices are talking to me
Dark voices tell me the way
It's supposed to be
They said "Breakin' up"
They said it's hard to do
You know it's just not true
Breakin' Up, it's easy to do
Why if you know
Why'd you have to go
And leave me on the floor
'Bout as sick as a dog
I'm feeding my face
Like a bleary-eyed hog
Why'd it have to stop
When it's just begun
Why'd it have to stop
With so much good undone
Chorus(3x)
You know I break up every time I
Break up with you (guitar solo)
