Great Escape

Standard Tuning


E
Thought I could
But I just can't wait
C#m
Started planning for my great escape
A
Where I'd live and 
B
What I'd leave behind.

Made a list of things I'd have to take
Things that make me feel like hell for heaven's sake
Who I'd love and
Who would toe the line.

       E         A
And I need you
           C#m                  B
Everybody needs someone like you
        E       A
If you need me too
           C#m         /Ab           A
You would be the only thing that I'd take
              E
On my great escape.

Float through this time like a cosmonaut
Reminding me of all the things I haven't got
Like time and space
A smile on my face
And you

And I need you
Everybody needs someone like you
If you need me too
You would be the only thing that I'd take with me...

F#m      Abm          A
Maybe I find that my destination
     F#m        Abm     A
Is somewhere I already know
F#m          Abm      C#m  B      A   B
You were as far as I ever had to go

And I need you
(thought I could, but I just can't wait)
Everybody needs someone like you
(started planning for my great escape)
If you need me too
(Who I'd love and) 
You would be the only thing that I'd take with me
(what I'd leave behind, 
what I'd leave behind)
I need you
Everybody needs someone like you
If you need me too
You would be the only thing that I'd take
On my great escape
On my great escape
On my great escape


There you go.
