[Verse]
Em          D/F#
 Like a bird upon release

Em                  D/F#
 Through the atmosphere

Em               D/F#
 Like a honking flock of geese

Em               D/F#
 Winter drawing near

Em               D/F#
 As the fabric comes unstitched

Em                   D/F#
 Hearts and minds and eyes bewitched

Em                D/F#             Em          D/F#
 Standing watching for the smoke to clear
[Chorus]
G              D/F#     C/G     Am
 First chance I get I'm gone
[Verse]
Em              D/F#
 Moses had his tablets yeah

Em             D/F#
 Noah had his ark

Em            D/F#
 All I got's a haystack needle

Em                D/F#
 Stabbing in the dark

Em                     D/F#
 Anguished cries and old footfalls

Em              D/F#
 Permeate these paper walls

Em                 D/F#           Em          D/F#
 Need some action all you get is talk
[Chorus]
G                D/F#
  First chance I get

    C/G            Am
I'm gone I'm outta here

G              D/F#
  First chance I get

    C/G            Am
I'm gone I'm outta here
[Verse]
Em                  D/F#
 Here's one for the boys back home yeah

Em                   D/F#
 Here's one for your spokes

Em                 D/F#
 A little taste of victory

Em                    D/F#
 To send back to your folks

Em                  D/F#
 Here's one for the fireside

Em                     D/F#
The grinning groom the blushing bride

Em                   D/F#          Em              D/F#
 Come and feast your eyes upon the hoax
[Chorus]
G                D/F#
  First chance I get

    C/G            Am
I'm gone I'm outta here

G              D/F#
  First chance I get

    C/G            Am
I'm gone I'm outta here
[Verse]
Em           D/F#
 Over Lake Superior

Em              D/F#
 And the Arctic Sea

Em                  D/F#
Through the dark interior

Em               D/F#
 The stolen territory

Em                D/F#
 Want it with the cream on top

Em                 D/F#
 One more lifetime swallowed up

Em                  D/F#              Em           D/F#
 He'll be back yeah just you wait and see
