Watsup, the lyrics are likely off as I don't have the booklet, also on the B 
chord and sometimes the C# you can throw a hammer on and 

pull-off with your pinky as you see fit, sounds good on the B.

Gabe,

                           
what’s your hurry to get laid? 
                 
                                                                 
Are you still worried that you’ve got nothin’ to say?

                             
Me, I don’t hesitate. It’s your day, and it’s slippin’ away.


Gabe,
                      
                                                                
You’ve got a funny way of sayin’ what you mean.
              
                              
Stand naked in the shadow of a dream.

                      
You can hide from yourself,

             
But not from me.
           
                     
Oh Gabe, don’t walk away,
	
                                      
‘Cause you almost flew, and you almost fell,
                           
               	          
When I look at you, I can almost tell,
   
                 
Oh Gabe, you got a-way
          
          
You got a-way

                 	                             
Gabe, you know I’m sorry to keep hurtin’ you this way. 
                              
                                      
But you’ve been lettin’ me and that is sad,
	
                              
So come a little closer, to me, 

                     
I come to see you’ve changed, 

           
All over again.

	                       
And I almost flew, and I almost fell,
               
                	         
When I look at you, I can almost tell,
           
                
Oh Gabe, you got a-way
         
          
You got a-way

Gabe, there’s a small dark look in your eyes.

                                       
An abandoned tear for a troubled goodbye.
             
             
Whispers speak, 
             
             
Tongue in cheek,
             
           
Love too meek,
     
      
Godspeed.

                                
As we almost flew, and we almost fell.

                                    
And when I look at you, I can almost tell.

                              
Oh Gabe, you got a-way, you got a-way.

                                      
‘Cause you almost flew, and you almost fell,

                                        
And when I look at you, I can almost tell. 



Great song!
