chord structure (repeat this throughout sog):
A                   E
These things you keep
                          A
you'd better throw them away
                    E
You wanna turn your back
                  A
on your soulless days
                    E
Once you were tethered
                 A
and now you are free
                 E
Once you were tethered
                  A
well now you are free
                E
That was the river
             A
this is the sea!
