Chorus: 
         Bb 
        Baby break it down 
         F 
        Baby break it down 
                                G   C  G 
        We've got a long way to go 
         Bb 
        Baby break it down 
         F

VERSE: 
         G 
        You're standing on your side 
       C                G 
        I'm standing on mine 
       C               G 
        It only needs one step 
                            D 
        And you could be crossing the line 
       G 
        There's nothing between us 
       C              G 
        Or maybe too much 
       C            G                       D 
        Whatever it is it's too fragile to touch 
 
 
Chorus: 
        Baby break it down 
        Baby break it down 
        We got a long way to go 
        Baby break it down 
        Wrap your love around 
        Babe, you've got a long way to go 
 
 
VERSE 2: 
       G 
        And who jumps the fences 
       C                    G 
        And who builds the walls 
       C                G                  D 
        Whoever takes chances must surely fall 
 
 
Chorus: 
        Baby break it down 
        Baby break it down 
        Babe, you've got a long way to go 
        Baby break it down 
        You'll be safe and sound 
        You've got a long way to go 
 
      * Babe too far to go  }    * INTRO RIFF ON BOTH 
      * Too far to go       }

        There's no river running

        That we can't cross 
       C                G 
        Does one or the other of us 
                 D 
        Have to be the boss
