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)

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)

Far astray (Far astray)

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

And it is not o - kay

You can sing so much better in the shower

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

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