BbmPrepare the diving Gbbell
DbIt's time to take this Ablow again
BbmI sink into Gbmyself, Dblow
No need for a farewell
AbI know you always understand
[Verse 1]
EbmSorry there's no place for youu iDbnside the solitude
BbmJust stay up here until I'm back again
EbmI swear I'll be there for you
DbI swear I'll follow through
AbStay the course and keep the ship manned
[Pre-Chorus 1]
GbI was certain if I Ebmfell through the bottom
DbYou'd be happy just to Gbfloat here on your own
GbI was never quite preEbmpared for the long ride, Dboh
Away, away, away, alone
[Chorus]
GbOh, this wasn't Ebmin my plans
