Chords for The Rhino Report: Top Ten Break Up Songs You Oughta Know

[E] Is it hot in here or is it because I just [Abm] watched a video for Miley Cyrus's Flowers,
an absolute scorcher of a kiss-off to her ex.
I forget the guy's name.
Miley's new [E] tune reminded us that Valentine's Day [Abm] isn't always about romance.
Sometimes [E] it's about being toxic [Gb] and telling your [B] ex to f*** off. _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ Hello [E] again!
I'm Scott T.
Sterling with a very special [D] Valentine's Day episode of The Rhino
This week, we've decided [Eb] to rank the 10 [C] greatest breakup songs of all time.
Number 10.
Carly Simon's [Ab] Grammy [Dm]-nominated number one hit, [C] You're So Vain.
_ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ [G] _ Listeners have long speculated the identity of the man [Am] Simon is singing about, with guesses
including one very famous singer who [F] contributed background vocals on You're [Am] So Vain without
credit.
Google it.
In 2015, Simon explained that You're So Vain is a [F] compendium of her feelings
about three [Am] different lovers, but only revealed one.
[F] Actor [G]-director Warren Beatty [Em] [Am] has yet to
reveal the other [F] two inspirations.
[Eb] Number [Bbm] 9.
Madonna, Take a Bow _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] Number 8.
Joni Mitchell, River
_ [Fm] _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
Number _ [G] _ _ _
[Fm] 7.
In 1977, Fleetwood Mac dropped [Dm] an entire [Bbm] album of breakup songs.
Of course,
[C] I'm talking about Rumors, the blockbuster release that chronicled [Dm] the bitter end of two relationships
[Bb] within [C] the band.
Woo, drama!
Today, we will spotlight the lead single, [Dm] Go Your Own Way.
[Bb] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Dm] _
The caustic track [Gm] was written by Lindsey [C] Buckingham as a fiery kiss-off to bandmate Stevie
[D] Mix.
The track, Go Your Own Way, peaked at [Bb] number 10 on the Billboard [C] Hot 100 and remains one of
the band's signature [Gb] songs.
Number 6.
[Bb] _ [Dbm] Brandy, Broken [Eb] Hearted
_ [Abm] _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ Number [N] 5.
Their pretty boy is from Birmingham, England.
Of course, I'm talking about Duran Duran,
and they flipped the script with their 1989 [Dm] single, I Don't Want Your Love.
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ [Dm] _ [G] In _ this chart comeback that peaked at number 4 on the Hot 100,
Simon LeBron and company let it be known that clingy stalkers never prosper.
With the singer
delivering the classic line, My obsessive fascination is in [Am] your imagination.
It's over.
Move on.
[Em] Number 4.
In 2012, [Bb] Bruno Mars broke it all the way down with the sad boy [C] anthem,
When I Was Your Man.
[G] _ _ _
[F] _ _ [G] The _ _
[C] _ _ _ emotional piano [Dm] ballad finds Mars admitting
just how [G] badly he messed up with her [C] previous paramour.
Not doing the little things like buying
her [F] flowers when he had the chance.
[G] Which brings us all the way [Am] back to today, 2023, [D] with pop star
Miley [F] Cyrus flipping When I Was Your [Fm] Man on its head with her global [C] smash, Flower.
The tune
paraphrases Bruno [F] Mars' song, with Cyrus letting it be known she can buy [G] her own flowers.
Thank you
very much.
[B] Number 3.
[Gb] In the 90s, it was breakout artist [E] Alanis Morissette who set the [A] modern
standard for breakup songs with the [B] venomous 1995 [Gb] anthem, You [E] Oughta Know.
_ [A] _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ [Dbm] This _ Grammy-winning smash
was powered by a high-profile band in the studio, including Flea, [Db] Dave [Abm] Navarro, and the man himself,
Ben Montench.
You Oughta Know peaked at number 6 on the Hot 100 with the Jagged Little Pill album
winning album [B] of the year at the Grammys, [Gbm] making [Abm] Morissette the youngest person [A] and the first
[Eb] Canadian, [Abm] oh Canada, to win [B] that coveted award.
Number 2.
[A] Paramour broke our [D] hearts in 2009 with
the last song on the band's third [B] album, Brand New Eyes, [Gbm] The Devastating [Bm] All I Wanted.
Written
when Hayley [Gbm] Williams' [B] then-boyfriend, [Db] guitarist Chad Gilbert of [D] Newfound Glory, was going away on
tour.
It's a fan favorite [Gbm] that Paramour [B] never performed live [A] until breaking it out [D] for a
concert debut just [Gbm] last year at the Wenmerah Young Festival in [Bm] Las [D] Vegas.
_ _ [Gbm] _ [Dbm] And [B] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
[Am] _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
[E] _ _ [Ab] number 1.
[F] Fleetwood Mac
[G] Dreams.
This is it.
The [F] ultimate breakup anthem of [G] them all.
While Lindsey Buckingham turned up the
[F] heat with Go Your Own Way, [G] Fleetwood Mac's Stevie Nicks countered with [C] her version of the legendary
breakup in [G] the form of the song Dream.
And while Go Your Own Way was a top 10 hit, Nick's Dreams
[F] still stands as Fleetwood Mac's one and [G] only number one single on the Hot [F] 100. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _
Fun fact!
The power of Dreams is so immense that the [C] 1977 song climbed all the way to number 7 on
Billboard Hot 100 in October 2020.
[Am] Well there you have it, lovers and [G] love haters.
For our [F] part, we
hope that you and your [C] valentine are snuggled up on a bed of roses, but if by chance you're not, you
just met 10 pretty good companions.
[F] Did we miss anything?

you think are the greatest breakup songs of all time.
