Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse 1 Chords:

So you just stepped out of the front of my house

 and I'll never see you again.

 I closed my eyes for a second and when they opened

 You weren't there.

 And the door shut shut I was vacuum packed,

 Shrink-wrapped out of air

 And the spine collapsed and the eyes rolled back

 To stare at my starving brain,

Chorus chords

And fully clothed, I float away (I'll float away)

Down the Forth

Into the sea, I think I'll save suicide for another day.

Verse 2

Use verse 1 chords

And I picture this corpse on the M8 hearse

And I half run away to sleep on a rolled up coat

Against the window with the strobe of the sun

And the life I've led

Am I ready to leap is there peace beneath

The roar of the Forth road bridge?

On the Northern side there's a Fife of mine

and a boat in the port for me,

Final Chorus:

And fully clothed, I float away (I'll float away)

G C (play this C on thru the next 5 lines)

Down the Forth, into the sea

I'll steer myself through drunken waves

These manic gulls scream it's okay

Take your life give it a shake

Gather up all your loose change

 I think I'll save suicide for another year.
