Eb 
Up on a hill is where we begin
                                  Gm6
This little story a long time ago
Eb
Start to pretend, stop pretending
                                  Gm6
It seems this game is simply never ending
Eb
Oh, in the sun sun having fun
It's in my blood
I just can't help it
Don't want you here right now
       Gm6
Let me go, oh, let me g-g-g-g-g-g-go
  
G#             D#/G 
   Leavin' just in time 
                Fm    
   Stayed here for a while 
                Gm           
   Rollin' in the ocean 
                Bb  
   Trying to catch her eye 
                D#/G  
   We're caught, and say it's easy  
                Fm  
   Do it just to please me 
                Gm   
   Tomorrow it is different  
                Bb 
   So I pretend, I'm leavin'
                D#    
   I'm leavin' 
 

(Eb) (Gm6)

Eb 
our fears are different here
We train in AVA
I wish you hadn't stayed
My vision's clearer now,
                      Gm6
but I'm unafraid
Eb 
Flying overseas, no time to feel the breeze
I took too many varieties
Oh, in the sun sunhaving fun
It's in my blood
I just can't help it
Don't want you here right now
       Gm6
Let me go, woooooo, darling let me g-g-g-g-g-g-go

  
G#             D#/G 
   Leavin' just in time 
                Fm    
   Stayed here for a while 
                Gm           
   Rollin' in the ocean 
                Bb  
   Trying to catch her eye 
                D#/G  
   We're caught, and say it's easy  
                Fm  
   Do it just to please me 
                Gm   
   Tomorrow it is different  
                Bb 
   So I pretend, I'm leavin'
                D#    
   I'm leavin'
