BREAK MY STRIDE - Matthew Wilder (I tune down a whole step and this is from just
listening to the song and learning it in that tuning. If you want to transpose it,
be my guest. There are websites that transposes music if you like.)
Let me know what you think. This is the first song I've submitted.
(Played with a Reggae feel)
[Verses]
Fm C
Last night I had the strangest dream
Em D
I sailed away to China in a little rowboat to find ya
Fm C
And you said you had to get your laundry clean
Em DDDD
Didn’t want no one to hold you, what does that mean
And you said
G C D
Ain’t nothing gonna break my stride
Bm Em D C X’s 2
Nobody gonna slow me down, oh, no
(Im runnin and I won’t touch ground, oh, no)
C Em D
I’ve got to keep on moving
Fm C
You’re on the road and now you (pray at last?)
Em D
The road behind was rocky, but now you’re feeling cocky
Fm C
You look at me and you see your past
Em D
Is this the reason why you’re runnin’ so fast
And she said
G C D
Ain’t nothing gonna break my stride
Bm Em D C
Nobody gonna slow me down, oh, no (X’s 2)
(Im running and I won’t touch ground oh no)
C Em D
I’ve got to keep on moving
Gm C
Never let another girl like you.. work me over
Gm C
Never let another girl like you.. drag me under
Am D
If I ever meet another girl like you.. I will tell her
Am D D D E
Never want another girl like you HAVE TO SAY, OH
G C D
Ain’t nothing gonna break my stride
Bm Em D C
Nobody gonna slow me down, oh, no (X’s 4 and fade)
(Im runnin and I won’t touch ground oh no)
C Em D
I’ve got to keep on moving
Ohh Ohhh Ohh Ohh Ohh
