   Mama, I'm dying of a heart attack, heart attack, heart attack
F
   I love that girl, but she don't love me back
Am                                                                     F
   My girl, she tells me that we're breaking up, breaking up, breaking up
F
   My heart can't handle the strain that's shaking up

[Pre-Chorus]
Dm                             Em
   She tried to tell me not so long ago
Dm                        Em
   I would not listen but now I know

   I tried to warn you, don't yo come too close

Dm                              Em
