Don't Go Away Mad (Just Go Away)
by M=94tley Cr=81e
C Dm
We could sail away or catch a freight train
F C
Or a rocket ship into outer space
C Dm
Nothin' left to do too many things were said
F C
To ever make it feel like yesterday did
C Dm
Seasons must change, separate paths, separate ways
F C
If we blame it anything, let's blame it on the rain
C Dm
I knew it all along, I'd have to write this song
F C
To young to fall in love, guess we knew it all along
Chorus:
Bb F
That's alright, that's OK
C
We were walkin' through some youth, smilin' through some pain
Bb F
That's alright, that's OK
C <- (go back to verse progression with this C)
Let's turn the page
My friends called today, down from L.A.
They were shootin' pool all night and sleepin' half the day
They said I could crash if I could find my own way
I told them you were leaving on a bus to go away
That's alright, that's OK
We were two kids in love tryin' to find our way
That's alright, that's OK
Held our dreams in our hands, let our minds run away
That's alright, that's OK
We were walkin' through some youth, smilin' through some pain
That's alright, let's turn the page
G
And remember what I say, and it goes this way
C D
Girl, don't go away mad (sing this part with the ending chord
F C progression that follows)
Girl, just go away!
