Delta Goodrem — I Cant Break It To My Heart Chords
This is Delta Goodrem's 4th single from 'Delta'. The setting for guitar is half—step
but I'll still write the chords as if it was in standard tuning due to the fact a piano is
to tune down or up. But regardless of the setup, it should sound the same.
