R.E.M. – Leave (Guitar)

 Am                       F
Nothing could bring me closer

 G                      Am
Nothing could bring me near

 Am                 F
Where is the road I follow

G              Am
To leave it? Leave

 Am                        F
It's under, under, under my feet

 G                          Am
The sea spread out there before me

  Am                     F
Where do I go when the land touches sea?

  G                   Am
There is my trust in what I believe

 C                       Am
That's what keeps me, that's what keeps me

  C                   G
That's what keeps me down

   C            Am
To leave it, leave it

 G             F
Leave it all behind

 Am
Shifting the dream

 F                      G                 Am
Nothing could bring me further from my old friend time

  Am                       F
Shifting the dream, it's charging the scene

    G                       Am
I know where I marked the signs

  Am                     F
I suffer the dreams of a world gone mad

    G                     Am
I like it like that and I know it

  Am              F
I know it well, ugly and sweet

   G                      Am
I temper madness with an even extreme

  Am                    F
That's what keeps me, that's what keeps me

   G                 Am
That's what keeps me down

    Am
I say that I'm a bantam lightweight

    F                            G                   Am
I say that I'm a phantom airplane that never left the ground

 C                       Am
That's what keeps me, that's what keeps me

  C                   G
That's what keeps me down

   C            Am
To leave it, leave it

 G             F
Leave it all behind

 Am         F
Lift me, lift me

   G          Am
I attain my dream

   Am             F
I lost myself, I lost the

   G           Am
Heartache calling me

   Am              F
I lost myself in sorrow

    G             Am
I lost myself in pain

  Am              F
I lost myself in gravity

         G            Am
Memory, leave, leave, leave

 C                       Am
That's what keeps me, that's what keeps me

  C                   G
That's what keeps me down

   C            Am
To leave it, leave it

 G             F
Leave it all behind

 C                       Am
That's what keeps me, that's what keeps me

  C                   G
That's what keeps me down

   C            Am
To leave it, leave it

 G             F
Leave it all behind

  Am               F
Lift my hands, my eyes are still

  G                 Am
I'll walk into the sea

   Am                    F
Shoot myself in a different place

    G       N.C.
And leave it

   Am                       F
I've longed for this to take me

   G                 Am
I've longed for my release

     Am               F
I've waited for the calling

    G      Am
To leave, leave

 Am     F
Leave, leave

G         Am
   Yeah, leave

   Am       F
Leaving, leaving
