FAR AWAY
GONE
(Listen HERE)
Pack up your
things and walk out that door
Just don’t
expect me to follow no more
No don’t
expect me
To be here
in the morning
I think I
feel that’s the sun’s gonna shine
I didn’t
notice that I’d lost my mind
So don’t
expect me
To be here
tomorrow
‘Cos I’ll be gone – far away gone
I’ll be gone –
far away gone
I think I
feel like going alone
Without that
constant moan and groan
So don’t
expect me to be here in the morning
I’m tired of listening to you
I’m tired of following you
It seems to
be time when I tell the truth
Being the
nice guy let you stay aloof
So don’t
expect me
To be here
if you return
‘Cos I’ll be gone – far away gone
I’ll be gone –
far away gone
