"Breaking Down" by Jeremy Messersmith http://www.myspace.com/jeremymessersmith My favorite song by one of my favorite hometown musicians. Here is the basic progression in the original key of G. Not hard at all, lovely song though. Great fun to harmonize on. Verse 1: G C C C/B I've got a car that's always stuck in the last gear.It's Amstarts and it goes if you leave it alone but you Dcan't steer. G C C C/B Taking it out on a Sunday drive on the back roads And it Amwaits till I'm far away from home and the Csun is getting DlowChorus 2: G C C C/B And wouldn't you know it, she's breaking down againAmPulling her over onto the shoulder, Cletting her under my Dskin Verse 2: G C C C/B I've got a woman that I haven't seen for a good year She's Amgot a new job, yeah I love her a lot but she Dain't here. G C C C/B We've got a system and she's got it all worked out But there's Amsomething missing that she's forgetting that Cshe can't live withDout(Repeat Chorus) Verse 3: (repeat verse progression) I've got a car, it looks real good with the top down But it lost a tire and caught on fire in the last town I've got a girl who's drying her eyes with a haiku So I'm hitching a ride down 35, gotta be there by afternoon (Repeat Chorus)
