Big Country: Look Away

Intro: ()                      

             
        This t

       
ime we run
             
        This t

       
ime we hide
             
        This t

           
ime we draw on

        We nee

       
d some time
             
        To fin

    
d a place
             
        Where 

          
I can wipe awa

             
y the madness 

         
from your face

        Our name is out
        Our name is known
        Our name is everywhere but who know's where we've flown
        I never meant
        To kill a man
        But I will show you have to live like no-one ever can

       
              

  (         
  Look away, l

  Hide your ey

            
es from the la

nd where I lie

 cold
              
              

  (         
  Look away, l

        
ook away

es that were t

  (         
  Look away, l

         
ook away
              
              

             
  From the lov

             
e that I hide 

             
way down deep 

      
in my soul

        I met you wild
        In a snowed up town
        I was waiting tied and bound to be sent down
        Then I broke loose
        You weren't around
        So I raised banks and trains until I tracked you down

Chorus:

Solo: ()                      

        You followed me
        When I said no
        You lay with me when there was nowhere safe to go
        We made some friends
        But now it's done
        I always knew that we would never catch the sun

Chorus:  2x
