Version 1Capo on 1 [Intro] F F C Dm Oh! Get me away from here I'm dying Am Bb Play me a song to set me free F Bb Nobody writes them like they used to C F So it may as well be me C Dm Here on my own now after hours Am Bb Here on my own now on a bus F Think of it this way G Bb C You could either be successful or be us Bb C With our winning smiles, and us Bb C With our catchy tunes, oh us Bb Now we're photogenic Dm Am Bb F Bb You know, we don't stand a chance (we don't stand a chance) F C Dm Oh I'll settle down with some old story Am Bb About a boy who's just like me F Bb C Thought there was love in everything and everyone F You're so naive! C Dm They always reach a sorry ending Am Bb They always get it in the end F G Bb C Still it was worth it as I turned the pages solemnly, and then Bb C With a winning smile the boy Bb C With naivety succeeds Bb Dm At the final moment, I cried Am Bb I always cry at endings F C Dm Oh, that wasn't what I meant to say at all Am Bb From where I'm sitting, rain F Bb Falling against the lonely tenement C F Has set my mind to wander C Dm Into the windows of my lovers Am Bb They never know unless I write F G Bb C "This is no declaration, I just thought I'd let you know goodbye" Bb C Said the hero in the story, Bb C "It is mightier than swords Bb I could kill you sure Dm Am Bb But I could only make you cry with these words" F Bb Cry with these words F Bb Cry with these words Bb F Bb Ooh! Get me away I'm dying F Bb Get me away I'm dying [Ending] Bb F
