C#/G# F#
C#/G# A#m
this ones going out to you
G# F#
as the taxi pulls away
C#/G# F# G# G#sus G#
a song to keep you company for the ride
C#/G# A#m
theres something wrong with a goodbye
G# F#
in the middle of the day
C#/G# F# G# G#sus G#
so pretend I am still sitting at your side
F# A#m
and if you want to talk about all the differences
G# G#sus
between the shackle and the man
F# A#m G#
or if you’ve got reasons no one ever let you say
C#/G# F# C#/G# F#
then fire awayyyyyyyyyy
F# C#/G# F# C#/G# F#
fire awayyyyyyyy
C#/G# A#m
this ones going out to you
G# F#
on the day they let you out
C#/G# F# G# G#sus G#
for the thousand ways they ask if you're okay
C#/G# A#m
because whatever answer that you give
G# F#
it’s only gonna play into their doubts
C#/G# F# G# G#sus G#
and be just half of what’s behind each word you say
F# A#m
so if you finally roped that heartbreak song
G# G#sus
that the experts never could
F# A#m G#
or if you just wanted someone to listen to you play
C#/G# F# C#/G# F#
then fire awayyyyyyyyyy
F# C#/G# F# C#/G# F#
fire awayyyyyyyy
F A#m G# F#
fire away
C#/G# A#m
this ones going out to you
G# F#
if you ever start to slip
C#/G# F# G# G#sus G#
and you learn to read between these lines you've drawn
C#/G# A#m
when what is wrong and what is right
G# F#
seem more like just the ocean and the ship
C#/G# F# G# G#sus G#
and the straight line that you've followed here is gone
F# A#m
and if that same old fox comes and sweeps you up
G# G#sus
each time you spread your wings
F# A#m G#
I could at least love you through each stumble, shift and sway
G# G#sus G#7
C#/G# F# C#/G# F#
then fire awayyyyyyyyyy
F# C#/G# F# C#/G# F#
fire awayyyyyyyy
F A#m G# F#
fire awayyyyy
F# A#m G#
F# A#m G#
F# A#m G#
when you need someone to walk away from
F# A#m G#
when you need someone to let you in (through each stumble, shift and sway)
Break
F# G# (for the rest I'm out)
F# A#m G#
when you need someone to walk away from
F# A#m G#
when you need someone to let you in
