GBm
I came around the corner
CG
Of the outer edge of town
Bm
You were standing in the center
CG
There were people gathered all around
GBm
I'd never get through this crowd
CG
My heart went kind of numb
GBm
But you smiled when you saw me
CG
and you beckoned me to come
GBm
so I struggled through the pressing mass
CG
I had a thousand things to say
Bm
but I was sure your ears were flooded
CG
And there was just too much in the way
Chorus :
DDsusD
But then you said to me
GDC
come away by yourself to a lonely place for a while
G
well I'm sure you're tired you know
DC
I cannot even see your smile
G
there's just too many people here
DC
why don't you come and be with me
G
Then you took my hand
DC
And we headed out for the sea
(you simply told me that I'd be free)
Verse 2:
I got home late this morning
You've been gone since the other day
They took you to the tomb
But I guess we all go there someday
I came out here to get away
To get some time to think
Cause nothings making sense right now
I feel like I'm on the brink
Then on the distant shore
I hear some strong voice say
Cast our nets the other way
Chorus :
Bridge :
Am
You know things get hard
BmCD
And the world's not stopping for me
AmBm
But I know now what to do
CD
And I know where I need to be
Cause you said to me
