Going Away Tab

Please don't forget me, I'm going away 
                                   
I'm taking a taxi to Kentucky where they don't need to know 
                            
All about me, I just need to feel safe 
                                                 
Got a thousand sweaters and shoes and paintings to hide 

Skeletons in my bed 
Don't ask where I'm going 


          
I'm going away 
          
I'm going my way 
             
Finally it's my time 
                                       
to be lonely, and lost, unloveed and I can't wait 
                     
Don't forget what I said 
                
don't forget my letter 
                   
every night I pray for you 
I don't got no religion 
              
Isn't it that something 
             
I'll miss those days, I


(This verse is a little different from the first)
                                  
I saved that bottle, it's now 10 years aged 
              
I've got some bibles I could sell for money 
                           
And a pair of fresh shaved legs 
                                         
Won't you baby come with me, I've got extra space 
 or 
In my car, in my heart, in my mind 
                                 
Look there's the passenger seat by the postcards you gave (Don't know where i'm going) 

Same as first chorus)
I'm going away 
I'm going my way 
Finally it's my time 
to be lonely, and lost, unloved and I can't wait 
Don't forget what I said 
don't forget my letter 
every night I pray you 
I don't got no religion 
Isn't that something 
I'll miss those days 

                          
But he said "slow down, slow down 
         
Think it over, we've all got wretched closets 

Silly girl, pride kills more than aids 
               
Lately" i said "come on 
             
I've thought it over
I Don't wanna die here 
           
I have no desire to get married 

    x2

   
I can't race the others anymore, 
no I must learn to race myself. 

(same chorus)
I'm going away 
I'm going my way 
Finally it's my time 
to be lonely, and lost, unloved and I can't wait 
Please forget what I said (I'll find my way)
Please forget my letter 
every night I pray for you 
I don't got a religion 
Isn't that something 
I'll miss those days 

I, I'm not going halfway (i'll find my way) 
I, I 
every night I pray for you
dont believe in heaven 
or that it could be a happy place 
I, I'm going away
