Look Away

            Cm
The need to quantitate has put center stage

Regret, remorse, regard
Fm
Crazed and calm with a sinners psalm

Memories lose their art
     Cm
So I circle thoughts with centered eyes

That stare without ever seeing
        Fm
But it's getting dim and just before any
                        G7
Reasons can be revealed


[Chorus]
  Ab
I fall
Db                        G7
And I don't want to get up
Cm
Just leave me down here
Bb                         Ab
Down where the truth won't go
Db                         G7
No, I don't want to give up
Cm
Just dust me off and
Bb                  Ab
I swear you'd never know
Oh, no
G7
Look away
G7             G7
Shade your eyes
     G7
Don't
    G7
Stop

[Verse 2]
                 Fm
Then there's the simple fact
                        Cm
That I was born this way
           Fm                          Cm
In such a tout assimilation of mistakes
      Fm
Don't you misjudge what I'm capable of
                            G7
If I'm heir to a broken will


[Chorus]
  Ab
I fall
Db                        G7
And I don't want to get up
Cm
Just leave me down here
Bb                         Ab
Down where the truth won't go
Db                         G7
No, I don't want to give up
Cm
Just dust me off and
Bb                  Ab
I swear you'd never know
Oh, no
G7
Look away
G7             G7
Shade your eyes
     G7
Don't
    G7
Stop


[Bridge]
                 Eb
Leave the pain behind
                    Bb
Casting fear to the side
           Cm        Bb         Ab
For just a moment so things can align
         Eb                          Bb
And if I fall, sometimes that's just fine
             Cm           Bb           Ab
As long as I get up, then things are alright
       G7             G7
Oh no, don't look away
                     G7
Don't shade your eyes
     G7
Don't
    G7
Stop
