Away Away
View chords used in this chart
D
A picture's worth a thousand words
Em G D
But it can barely scratch the surface
Of all I have seen and heard
Em G D
And while all around is worthless
Em
I see you in sepia
G D
I see you in black and white
Em
Even in my wildest dreams
G A
Even on my darkest nights
Can't leave it here, can't let it drop
G
Can't walk away
A
I have you hanging on my wall
G
And I sing every single day
Chorus
D Em G Em D
Away away, where only memory can find you
Away away, leaving this poor fool behind you
It's just a memory, though I can hardly see
Photo's of yesterday are almost good enough for me
D
I wake up on restless days
Em G D
So much noise, so little sleep
Em
I just lie awake in bed
G D
I resolve to make believe
Em
And imagine that you're here
G D
That you never went away
Em
It's gets so easy to dream
G A
But oh so hard to face the day
A
I can't forget, I wont forget
G
But honestly what can you do
A
When I hate everyone and I hate everything
G
That's keeping me from you
Chorus repeat.
D Em G A
Away Away, Away Away
Away Away, Away Away
