Or come and take them away

Away from the simple life

Bm A A7

Away from the guns and knives

G D Bm G A

Away to a place that's cold and gray

D A G

Nobody smiles at you in LA

Must be cuz they're thinking

And slowly drifting away

Away from the movie stars

Away from the car alarms

Away from the people who give them their way (?)

I love this song, and am really getting into this artist. Let me know if you find any mistakes (other than the obvious; that I haven't a clue what he says at the end of the second verse). Hey, let me know if you know what he says there. SpartacusGirl@ivillage.com
