E
B Take it or leave it, she told me.
E
B It's all the same to me.
E
B I don't need you to make me feel
F# The way I need to be.
B
E So take it or leave it
B
E Just don't get in my way
B
E Maybe I'll see you tomorrow
F# or another distant day.
E
B That was after she told him,
E
B Take me. Don't leave.
E
B He didn't want to hear that.
F# He needed to breathe.
B
E He left her in pieces.
B
E Some she never found.
B
E Eventually she patched herself.
F# Now she won't be bound.
Chorus:
E
B She's off the ground.
E
B She's off the ground.
E
B Still she hears the
F# sound.
B
E She's off the ground.
B
E She's off the ground.
B
E Still she hears the
F# sound.
E
B High above she is flying.
E
B She sees everything.
E
B No one can touch her
F# or make her feel the thing,
B
E the love that destroyed her,
B
E that made her go insane,
B
E made her just like all the rest
F# who lost what theyd gained.
E
B Now a flock of people
E
B soar up in the sky,
E
B getting a bigger picture,
F# tryin not to cry
B
E when they see all the others.
B
E They were once just like them,
B
E so open hearted,
F# just wanting a best friend.
{chorus}
E
B The love that's everlasting,
E
B that everyone deserves.
E
B The kind that makes a person
F# remember those words:
B
E Take me don't leave me.
B
E I want you by my side,
B
E whether we are on the ground
F# or soaring in the sky.
