                    G
Take everything you know and write it on your skin
                  D
And you can carry on and forget everything
                    C                       G
Take everything you own and put it in your car
               D
You can drive away, drive away so far,
                C                            G
And drive into a lake and take off all your clothes,
                   D
Set your clothes on fire, now you are alone
                      C                       G
But you've got all you know written on your skin,
                 D
So you can carry on and forget everything

PRE-CHORUS:

G                 C         G
All the things I'd rather be,
                  C         G
All the things I'd rather be

CHORUS:

G                                     Em  
I can't, I can't, I can't stay around here
    C            G
I can, only leave
