Am F C
If I'm lost at sea,
G Am F C G
Tell my mother, my father, my sisters, my brother,
Am F C G
My friends and my foes, and all my past lovers,
F G C (<----Play as single chords if you're not using the pattern)
That I will miss them so.
F G C F C (<----These too)
But lord, I had to go.
Am F
Sorrows, to the sea,
C G Am
We're headed to nowhere, but nowhere is somewhere to me.
F G
Take these broken things,
F C C/B
Turn them to something, but please don't follow me.
{Chorus}
Am F
Imagine emotion that moves like the ocean,
C G
Your mind is the current that drifts with the notion.
Am F G
And everyone, everywhere,
F C D
Is taking their time, but going nowhere.
F C G Am F C G Am
I can't live my life on their time,
F C G Am F C C/B
I just had to run, away.
{Chorus - don't play the F C at the end!}
