Bb Dm Gm Bb/F Eb
Greetings from space, I am lost without a trace
Bb F C Eb
Without a face, number or name
Bb Dm Gm Bb/F Eb
Here we could stay, it feels nice to get away
Bb F C D
From all the pain, the world has gone insane
Bb D Gm Bb/F Eb
It's all the same, handshakes and names circulating round
Bb F C D
But I've found a leap hole in the ground
Bb D Gm Bb/F Eb
So tell my guitar I won't be coming home tonight
Bb F Bb
Feels kind of pointless when there's no one around

[Chorus]
Eb F Gm Bb
So I try to say that I'm sorry
Eb D Gm Bb
And I try to do no harm
Eb F Gm C
And I lied when I said I was happy
Eb F Bb
If you love me, please, let me go

[Verse]
Bb Dm Gm Bb/F Gm
Peel off my skin, I don't need anything
Bb F C D
I've lost your ring, but, honey, it's just a thing
Bb Dm Gm Bb/F Eb
Here we could stay, it feels nice to get away
Bb F C D
From all the pain, the world has gone insane
Bb D Gm Bb/F Eb
It's all the same, handshakes and names circulating round
Bb F C D
But I've found a leap hole in the ground
Bb D Gm Bb/F Eb
So tell my guitar I won't be coming home tonight
Bb F Bb
Feels kind of pointless when there's no one around

So I try to say that I'm sorry

And I try to do no harm

If you love me, please, let me go
