Standard (EADGBE)

Gabe,

 what’s your hurry to get laid?

 Are you still worried that you’ve got nothin’ to say?

Me, I don’t hesitate. It’s your day, and it’s slippin’ away.

Gabe,

 You’ve got a funny way of sayin’ what you mean.

 Stand naked in the shadow of a dream.

 You can hide from yourself,

 But not from me.

 Oh Gabe, don’t walk away,

 ‘Cause you almost flew, and you almost fell,

 When I look at you, I can almost tell,

 Oh Gabe, you got a-way

 You got a-way

Gabe, you know I’m sorry to keep hurtin’ you this way.

 But you’ve been lettin’ me and that is sad,

 So come a little closer, to me,

 I come to see you’ve changed,

 All over again.

 And I almost flew, and I almost fell,

 When I look at you, I can almost tell,

 Oh Gabe, you got a-way

 You got a-way

Gabe, there’s a small dark look in your eyes.

 An abandoned tear for a troubled goodbye.

 Whispers speak,

 Tongue in cheek,

 Love too meek,

 Godspeed.

 As we almost flew, and we almost fell.

 And when I look at you, I can almost tell.

 Oh Gabe, you got a-way, you got a-way.

‘Cause you almost flew, and you almost fell,

And when I look at you, I can almost tell.
