verse 1 

Em G 
   Come away, come away 
      Em        C    G 
Cause I love my soul 
          Am 
A fighter in need 
        G      A 
A lover astray 
                             Em 
Now telling you it's not for gold 
G 
Come away, come away 
      Em       C     G 
Cause I know I won't 
       Am 
A fire in me 
              G   A 
The trouble I see 
                        Em 
Heaven won't you let me go? 


        G 
This is it 
           Em 
Apocalypse 
          C   G Am 
I feel it now

           Em 
Apocalypse 
          C   G Am 
I fear it now 
            G A 
I fear now 
                             Em G Em C G Am G A 
I'm dreaming up to start a fire 
                             Em 
I'm dreaming up to start a fire 


verse 2 

G 
Come away, come away 
    Em        C  G 
The further I go 
         Am 
Whenever these leaves 
          G       A 
Are ready to fall 
                        Em 
Cut me down cut me down 
G 
Come away, come away 
    Em          C    G 
For more that I know 
            Am 
To all that I need 
                G      A 
There's nothing at all 
                        Em 
Heaven won't you let me go? 


        G 
This is it 
           Em

This is it 
           Em 
Apocalypse 
          C   G Am 
I fear it now 
            G A 
I fear now 
                             Em G Em C G Am G A 
I'm dreaming up to start a fire 
                             Em G Em C G Am G A
