Capo 4th fret
Standard (EADGBE)
One of us is gonna be here and
One of us is gonna be running
Off alone into the great unknown
You're not me, you're a model of freedom
All you need are your kicks when you need 'em
Come and go, caught that slow alright
With one hand off the side
We get farther away in the blink of an eye
(Chorus)
And it's the time we waste
Swallowed into space
It's the time it takes to blow-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh away
blow-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh away
(2nd Verse: same chords)
Hey, hey you, yeah you gotta be leaving,
Say what you want, what you say, say anything
No one knows just how deep it goes
We are old in your teenaged tyranny
And all you need is a hunger to feed
I've got my own secrets though, say what?
With a heart full of mess and lore
We are doomed but we wanted more and more
It's the ride we take
The many-winged escape
It's the bough we break to blow-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh away
blow-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh away
(instrumental)
(bridge: same chords as verses)
One of us is now retreating
You knocked me down so hard I'm seeing a thousand stars
Come out where you are
'Cause I won't ever be caught crying
And I will not be taken lying down
It blows into smoke
(chorus)
The time we waste
Swallowed into space
It's the time it takes to blow-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
It's the ride we take
The many winged escape
It's the bough we break to blow-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
It's the times we say that no one's gonna take your place
It's a mistake to blow-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh away
We blow-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh away
