Big Country: Look Away
Intro: (A) E A C#m A E A C#m A B A E B
A C#m
This time we run
A E
This time we hide
A C#m A E
This time we draw on all the fire we have inside
A B
We need some time
A E
To find a place
A C#m B A B E
Where I can wipe away the madness from your face
Our name is out
Our name is known
Our name is everywhere but who know’s where we’ve flown
I never meant
To kill a man
But I will show you have to live like no-one ever can
Chorus: (A) C#m
Look away, look away
B
Hide your eyes from the land where I lie cold
(A) C#m
Look away, look away
B
From the lies in the stories that were told
(A) C#m
Look away, look away
B A B E
From the love that I hide way down deep in my soul
I met you wild
In a snowed up town
I was waiting tied and bound to be sent down
Then I broke loose
You weren’t around
So I raised banks and trains until I tracked you down
Chorus:
Solo: (A) E A C#m A E A C#m A B A E B
You followed me
When I said no
You lay with me when there was nowhere safe to go
We made some friends
But now it’s done
I always knew that we would never catch the sun
Chorus: 2x
