C5                     E5
Please don't forget me, I'm going away 
      D5                             G5
I'm taking a taxi to Kentucky where they don't need to know 
     C5                       E5
All about me, I just need to feel safe 
      D5                                           G5
Got a thousand sweaters and shoes and paintings to hide 
F5
Skeletons in my bed 
Don't ask where I'm going 


          C5
I'm going away 
          E5
I'm going my way 
             A5
Finally it's my time 
                       F5                G5
to be lonely, and lost, unloveed and I can't wait 
                     C5
Don't forget what I said 
                E5
don't forget my letter 
                   A5
every night I pray for you 
I don't got no religion 
              F5
Isn't it that something 
             G5
I'll miss those days, I


(This verse is a little different from the first)
             C5                     E5
I saved that bottle, it's now 10 years aged 
              D5
I've got some bibles I could sell for money 
      F5                    G5 
And a pair of fresh shaved legs 
                    C5                     E5
Won't you baby come with me, I've got extra space 
D5 or A5
In my car, in my heart, in my mind 
F5                                 G5
Look there's the passenger seat by the postcards you gave (Don't know where i'm going) 

Same as first chorus)
I'm going away 
I'm going my way 
Finally it's my time 
to be lonely, and lost, unloved and I can't wait 
Don't forget what I said 
don't forget my letter 
every night I pray you 
I don't got no religion 
Isn't that something 
I'll miss those days 

                F5          G5
But he said "slow down, slow down 
         A5
Think it over, we've all got wretched closets 
C5
Silly girl, pride kills more than aids 
F5               G5
Lately" i said "come on 
             A5
I've thought it over
I Don't wanna die here 
           C5
I have no desire to get married 

F5 G5 A5 C5 x2

F5 G5 A5 C5
I can't race the others anymore, 
no I must learn to race myself. 

(same chorus)
I'm going away 
I'm going my way 
Finally it's my time 
to be lonely, and lost, unloved and I can't wait 
Please forget what I said (I'll find my way)
Please forget my letter 
every night I pray for you 
I don't got a religion 
Isn't that something 
I'll miss those days 

I, I'm not going halfway (i'll find my way) 
I, I 
every night I pray for you
dont believe in heaven 
or that it could be a happy place 
I, I'm going away
