Standard (EADGBE)

Take me somewhere nice.

To some tired island,

In your heart,

Called Paradise.

Though we wander home

We both feel alone

Like escapees

With no where to go.

I can think of

A thousand ways.

To get good and lost

Beyond these hopeless days..

Where we'll rendezvous

Out of the blue

And take a deep breath

Just we two

And we'll be so far gone

The oars will row on

And we will happily wave..

So long..

If we hook a dream

And it tows it back down

This open stream

We'll say hello

Oh, Oh

Take us wherever you go.

Chorus

Take me somewhere deep.

'Cause i'm quite exhausted

And I need to sleep

Or climb the great divide

Or wake up beside myself

Just to know I'm alive.

Every waded route

Pays me a visit

And drags my eyelids down.

They sting like growing pains

Iced in the veins of a guy

Who's not ready to die

If I may be so bold

I'll weather the cold.

'Cause I'm not afraid to grow old..

If we hook a dream

And it tows it back down

This open stream

We'll say hello

Oh, Oh

Take us wherever you go.

Chorus
