Default adding a carriage return in the "Text to be inserted before" section

Is there a way to add a return character before a field using the
field codes with "Text to be inserted before"? For example:

{MERGEFIELD "Name"}
{MERGEFIELD "Address"}
{MERGEFIELD "CityStateZip"}
{MERGEFIELD "Email"}
{MERGEFIELD "Phone"}

but i want the results to be like the follwing if all fields are
populated:

Name
Address
CityStateZip
---- note there is a
carraige return
Email
---- note there is a
carraige return
Phone

If i change the Email to:
{MERGEFIELD "Email" \b "something"}

the result will be

somethingEmail --- if an email exists...

So instead of "Something" is there some character combination i can
put so that it will put a carriage return instead?

Or do i have to use a really complicated if/then statement?

Any help greatly apprecaited!
