[Verse 1]
G F C
Independent, that's how you view yourself
Am7
Now that you're twentytwo, twentytwo
G F C
If I could do it, I would stay young for you
Am7
We could live inside a place
D7
Where we'd never have to face
Am7
All the people who disgrace us
D7
And make us hide our face
[Verse 2]
G F C
Busted and used, that's how you view your girl
Am7
Now that she's twentytwo, twentytwo
G F C
If I could do it, I would stay young for you
Am7
We could live inside a place
D7
Where we'd never have to face
Am7
All the people who disgrace us
D7
And make us hide our face
[Verse 3]
G F C
If I could do it, I would fly into the sun
Am7
I would become warm
G F C
And I meant it when I said you're my favourite son
Am7
With your finger that is reaching
D7
For the trigger of the gun
Am7
And you know you've got to prove it
D7
To yourself and everyone
[Chorus]
G Am
I do not go quietly
C
Into the night that calls me
Am G
Even when I'm alone
G Am
I do not go quietly
C
Into the night that calls me
Am G
Even when I'm alone
[Verse 4]
G F C
If I could do it, I would take her in my arms
Am7
I would unwrong all his wrongs
G F C
I could stay here and write a thousand songs
Am7
Just to show her that the stars
D7
Still come out behind the fog
Am7
There's a light on in the lighthouse
D7
You can see it in the dark
[Chorus]
G Am
I do not go quietly
C
Into the night that calls me
Am G
Even when I'm alone
G Am
I do not go quietly
C
Into the night that calls me
Am G
Even when I'm alone
[Bridge]
G Am C G x2
[Chorus]
G Am
I do not go quietly
C
Into the night that calls me
Am G
Even when I'm alone
G Am
I do not go quietly
C
Into the night that calls me
Am G
Even when I'm alone
G Am
I do not go quietly
C
Into the night that calls me
Am G
No, no, no, no, no
