C Am G C Am G
[Verse 1]
C Am Em
Silent groaning on the floor
C Am Em
Slight clicking out the light
C Am Em
Gentle squeaking of the door
C Am Em
I am off in the night
[Chorus]
C G D
Away away
C G D
Away away
Am G D
Nothing's left to say
Am G D
I am far away
Em D Am
Kicking empty cans
D Em
Just around the corner
D Am
Maybe you look on me
D G
As a lonesome mourner
D Am
While I'm drifting off
D Em
Along distant shores
D Am
Think I'm nothing but this tin
D B
Because I don't feel anymore
[Verse 2]
C Am Em
Was it meant for me
C Am Em
When you soared from that pole
C Am Em
Can you see what I can't see
C Am Em
A resting place for my soul
[Chorus]
C G D
Away away
C G D
Away away
Am G D
Nothing's left to say
Am G D
I am far away
Em D Am
Kicking empty cans
D Em
Just around the corner
D Am
Maybe you look on me
D Em
As a lonesome mourner
D Am
While I'm drifting off
D Em
Along distant shores
G D Am
Think I'm nothing but this tin
D B
Because I don't feel anymore
[Verse 3]
C Am Em
Green feather on the ground
C Am Em
He's been watching you
C Am Em
Proclamation all around:
C Am Em
"Only passing through!
[Chorus]
C G D
Away away
C G D
Away away
Am G D
Nothing's left to say
Am G D
I am far away
Em D Am
Far away from now
D G
Sorrows and grief
D Am
Way up in the sky
D Em
You give me relief
D Am
Like the way you are floating
D Em
Conquers gravitation
D Am
Makes me overcome
D Em
This leaden stagnation
Em D Am
Kicking empty cans
D Em
Just around the corner
D Am
Maybe you look on me
D Em
As a lonesome mourner
D Am
While I'm drifting off
D Em
Along distant shores
Em D Am
Think I'm nothing but this tin
D B
Because I don't feel anymore
