Where can I get the songsheet to 'Don't go breaking my heart

'?
It mustn't get confused with the Elton John song under the same title.
I've always loved this song but have never found the songsheet for it.
Please help!

Richard,
Thats a tough one...the time for classic Burt/Hal sheet music was the late 60's early 70's it was everywhere...usually distributed by Charles Hansen Music...Burt and Hal have Changed publishers a lot, but the music should be available in some sort of song folio, either on the web, or from some rack jobber..
www.sheetmusicplus.com and muiscnotes.com doesnt have the song. Possibly some of our other members... or a larger library in some major city that has the Bacharach David songbook...they might be able to make you a fair-use copy.

talk about smooth, this song gets my vote for smooth bossa-nova.. : )

Just saw "Trains and Boasts and Planes" sheet music pop up on ebAY...so keep your eyes peeled for others, including the song you want...
They show up now and then.

Hi Richard,

I have a piano book "Bacharach/David Song Book" published by Blue Seas Music, Inc. and JAC Music Co., Inc. in 1968. It has the piano sheet music for "Don't Go Breakin' My Heart" in the book. If you want to send me a message with your address, I'll send you a copy of the song.

Another Burt fan,
Laura
