Capo 6th fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Take everything you know and write it on your skin
And you can carry on and forget everything
Take everything you own and put it in your car
You can drive away, drive away so far,
And drive into a lake and take off all your clothes,
Set your clothes on fire, now you are alone
But you've got all you know written on your skin,
So you can carry on and forget everything
Strummed:
Pre-chorus
All the things I'd rather be,
All the things I'd rather be
Strummed:
Chorus
I can't, I can't, I can't stay around here
I can, only leave
