Get Me Away From Here

Belle and Sebastian

 F#C#Ebm
 Oh! Get me away from here I'm dying
 BbmB
Play me a song to set me free
 F#B
Nobody writes them like they used to
 C#F#
So it may as well be me

 C#Ebm
Here on my own now after hours
 BbmB
Here on my own now on a bus
 F#
Think of it this way
 G#BC#
You could either be successful or be us

Chorus:
 BC#
With our winning smiles, and us
 BC#
With our catchy tunes and words
 B
Now we're photogenic
 EbmBbmBF#B
You know we don't stand a chance (we don't stand a chance)

B - F# a few times

< Same pattern as first verse >

Verse 2:
Oh I'll settle down with some old story
About a boy who's just like me
Thought there was love in everything and everyone
You're so naive!
They always tell a sorry story
They always get it in the end
Still it was worth it as I turned the pages solemnly, and then

With a winning smile the boy
With naivety succeeds
At the final moment, I cried
I always cry at endings

B - F# again a few times

Verse 3:
Oh, that wasn't what I meant to say at all
>From where I'm sitting, rain
Washing against the lonely tenement
Has set my mind to wander
Into the windows of my lovers
They never know unless I write
"This is no declaration, I just I'd let you know goodbye"

Said the hero in the story
"It is mightier than swords
I could kill you sure
But I could only make you cry with these words"

Cry with these words
Ooh! Get me away I'm dying

B - F# to end
