ANYWHERE BUT HERE
[Intro]
C#m E
Tonight is the one thing left
A B C#m
And I haven’t said it yet, I’m falling
E A B
And the writings on the wall
[Interlude]
C#m-E-A-B 2x
[Verse]
C#m E
Today was misery
A B C#m
And I just can’t believe this happened
E A B
And I finally broke down
C#m E
She held onto my heart
A B C#m
But now my only star is falling
E A B
Its burning to the ground
C#m A (break)
Now I’m crying out
[Chorus]
C#m A
Secret love, my escape
E B
Take me far far away
C#m A
Secret love, are you there
E B
Will you answer my prayer
C
Please take me anywhere but here
[Interlude] x2
C#m-E-A-B
(Anywhere but here)
[Verse]
(same chords as the first)
You’re all I’ve got right now
No one else figures out this feeling
And how lonely it can get
These words can cut right through
Cause all along I’ve knew you’re sorry
But you haven’t said it yet
C#m A -break-
But now I won’t forget
[Chorus]
(same chords)
Secret love, my escape
Take me far far away
Secret love, are you there
Will you answer my prayer
Please take me anywhere but here
[Interlude]
C#m-E-A-B (once only)
(Anywhere but here)
[Verse]
C#m Eb-E
When we’re together
C C#m-B-A
Thoughts of her disappear
C#m Eb-E
If I fell to pieces
C C#m-B-A
You’d heal this pain I feel
[Chorus]
(strummed only once)
C#m A
Secret love, my escape
E B
Take me far far away
C#m A
Secret love, are you there
E B
Will you answer my prayer
Ebm B
Secret love, my escape
F# C#
Take me far far away
Ebm B
Secret love, are you there
F# C#
Will you answer my prayer
D
Please take me anywhere but here
[Outro]
Ebm-B-F#-C# 2x
(Anywhere but here)
