the best song off gabrielle’s album , “english rain”

take me away
standard tuning ( eadgbe )
no capo

* note , when i play this , i pluck the 4 bass strings , ( eadg ) because thats how gabby plays it .

G
take me away
C
from the demons in my brain
Em
take me out into the world
F G C
take me out into the day and let me find
G C
my piece of mind

G
i was alone
C
i was taken with the tide
Em
but i knew that i was home
F
when i looked into your eyes
G C
and said im done
G C
just let me go

C/G
i Am hollow
i Am numb
Em F
i Am staring down the barrel of this gun

C/G
i Am always by myself
Em
in a sea of self infliction
F
that i felt

G
my life is a line
C
burning faster every time
Em
happys just a dead end street
F
i must turn around and leave
G C
once in a while
G C
once in a while

G
i bear far more cracks
C
than the human eye can see
Em
is it fair to be perplexed
F
and try explain whats underneath
G C
with my success
G C
cause theres nothing left

C/G
i Am tortured
by myself
Em
i Am haunted by
F
the fear of someone else

C/G
i Am fading
im a ghost
Em
disconnected from the ones
F
i love the most

Am G
youve seen my best
Em
turn to the worst
ive dragged you
F
right down with me

Am G
want to confess
Em
but with the stress
F
im scared youd leave me

Am G
i want you to know
Em F
but you cant take it on your own
