D         A                   
  You say you love me 
Bm               G 
  Well they feel like words to me 
D              A   
  Well this just ain't working 
Bm               G   
  Stop thinking you can run over me 
D              A 
  I'm drifting, I'm settling 
Bm          G  
  Off to a foreign place 
D              A    
  If I can't see what's in front of me 
Bm                G 
  It's a mystery, well then apparently 

(D  A  Bm  G) 

 
Things just ain't the same 
And I'm ready for change 
Go on, begone, bye bye, so long 
Can't you see that you're 
Fading, fading, fading, fa-a-a-a-away 
Away, away, away, away 
I opened up my eyes, and I finally realized 
Today, today, it's too late 
You're fading away 


Put a sock in it just stop running your mouth 
Got my mind made up, I ain't coming back again 
No way, no way, no way, no way 
'Cuz I'm so fed up, boy you got me messed up 
If you hit me back up, don't press your luck today, today 
I'm blowing you away 


Things just ain't the same 
And I'm ready for change 
Go on, begone, bye bye, so long 
Can't you see that you're 
Fading, fading, fading, fa-a-a-a-away 
Away, away, away, away 
I opened up my eyes, and I finally realized 
Today, today, it's too late 
You're fading away 


So you turned into a ghost right in front of my eyes 
Tell me what's a girl to do when she's crying inside? 
I'm about to go and say 
I'm jumping off this train 
Whether wrong or right, I'll be gone by night 

Can't you see that you're 
Fading, fading, fading, fa-a-a-a-away 
Away, away, away, away 
I opened up my eyes, and I finally realized 
Today, today, it's too late 
You're fading away
