Lyrics:
C Am G Dm
I'm leaving, tomorrow, and I don't know, why.
C Am
There's something that's not right with my soul,
G Dm
I have no goal, I have no goal.
C
I'm leaving in shallow waters,
Am
I'm laeving all my dreams of you.
G Dm
I can't go on. I want to run away.
C Am
I think I'll go today, tomorrow
G Dm
Well, it won't help me at all. It won't help me at all.
C Am
There's something that I told you and you don't know,
G Dm
That it's true, oh, that it's true now.
C
I'm leaving in shallow waters,
Am
I'm leaving all my dreams of you.
G Dm
I can't go on. I want to run away.
Am G Dm
Ah wo ah ah x2
C
I'm leaving in shallow waters,
Am
All my dreams of you
G Dm
I can't go on. I want to run away, run away
C Am
I think I'll go today, cos you know tomorrow,
G Dm
It won't help me at all, it won't help me at all
C Am
Shallow waters, all my dreams of you
G Dm C
And I can't go on, I'm leaving in shallow water.
