VERSE 1:
There she Ggoes, and she's Amright on track
She said for Cnow I can't be here, but I'm Dcoming back
And she Gknows, in the Amsame old sky
That I'll be Cup within the clouds, making Dsure she's fine
And CI Ddon't want to Cbe aloneD, you know I come from a Cbroken home
DI just can't do withoAmut it
CHORUS:
DHere I go hear me call out after youD  
Bouncing off of the satellites
A few Ambroken words to Cget me Dthrough this
GLetting out what I'm always holding inD  
Gone away but I'm coming back again
           Am        C                 D(Repeat Intro)
Only you can get me through this
VERSE 2:
Things may Gchange, and I'll Amtake the blame
But Cwhat I am to you, will Dremain the same
A fair Gexchange, when there's Amnothing clear
To take Cso many things, that I Dcan't be near
And CI Ddon't want to Cbe aloneD, you know I come from a Cbroken home
DI just can't do withAmout it

But I know it's better
CWaiting for so long

There she Ggoes
And she's Amright on track
I know for Cnow I can't be here
REPEAT CHORUS
There she Ggoes
