Am     F       C 
If I'm lost at sea, 
G       Am         F          C           G 
Tell my mother, my father, my sisters, my brother, 
   Am             F         C           G 
My friends and my foes, and all my past lovers, 
     F      G         C  (<----Play as single chords if you're not using the pattern) 
That I will miss them so. 
    F       G      C   F   C  (<----These too) 
But lord, I had to go. 


Am              F 
Sorrows, to the sea, 
      C                      G                       Am 
We're headed to nowhere, but nowhere is somewhere to me. 
           F      G 
Take these broken things, 
F                           C            C/B                 
Turn them to something, but please don't follow me. 

{Chorus} 

Am                   F 
Imagine emotion that moves like the ocean, 
     C                        G 
Your mind is the current that drifts with the notion. 
    Am        F    G 
And everyone, everywhere, 
   F                      C       D 
Is taking their time, but going nowhere. 
F C     G    Am F    C   G     Am 
I can't live my life on their time, 
F C    G   Am  F   C  C/B 
I just had to run, away. 

{Chorus - don't play the F C at the end!}
