The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Mother told me always to follow the golden rule.
And she said it's really a sin to be mean and cruel.
So remember if you're untrue
Angels up in heaven are looking at you.
(Chorus)
You'll never get to heaven if you break my heart.
so be very careful not to make us part.
You won't get to heaven if you break my heart. . .Oh no
I've been hearin' rumors about how you play around.
Though I don't believe what I hear, still it gets me down.
If you ever should say goodbye
It would be so awful the angels would cry.
Chorus
-----------------------
(if you break my heart, break my heart)
-----------------------
I can hardly wait for the day when we say I do.
It's a day I dreamed of so long now it's comin' true.
You will promise to cherish me.
If you break your promise the angels will see.
Chorus
La, la, la, la, la, la, laaaaa, la, la, la, laaaaa, la, la, la,
laaaaa
La, la, la, la, la, la, laaaaa, la. la, la, laaaaa, la, la, la,
laaaaa
La, la, la, la, la, la, laaaaa, la, la, la, laaaaa. . . .
