Capo 1

Verse 1:

        C                      F     G
I could write something better in my sleep

        C                   F               G
I could sing so pretty it'd make your heart weep

        C                   F         G        C      F   G
I could steal a kiss but it could not keep our love


        C                     F    G
I could read something better in a book

        C                     F        G
I could break your heart with just one look

          C                             F     G         C      F   G
You could tear me apart and that's what you mistook for love


Chorus:

     F
Gone away (Gone away)

     C
Far astray (Far astray)

          F
It's gone today (It's gone today)

          C   C   G
And it is not o - kay


Verse 2:

          C                   F            G
Oh, I can hear so much better than you can speak

      C                     F             G
I can see right through you with just one peek

   C                F      G         C       F   G
So why'd you go and try to seek more love?


Chorus:

     F
Gone away (Gone away)

     C
Far astray (Far astray)

          F
It's gone today (It's gone today)

          C   C   G
And it is not o - kay


Bridge:

        F                   C
You can sing so much better in the shower

        F            G  F         C
You can count up the minutes that make up an hour

       Dm                                 G        G7
That's all it did take to crush and break our love

        C                   F         G        C      F   G
I could steal a kiss but it could not keep our love
