Verse 1
(Power chords)
Abm C# Ab C#
You swear you recall nothing at all
F Bbm Gb
That could make you come back down
Ab C# Ab C#
You made up your mind to leave it all behind
F F Gb
Now you're forced to fight it out
Chorus (See below intro)
You fall away from your past
But it's following you
You fall away from your past
But it's following you
Verse 2
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_fray/fall_away_tab_ver_2.html ]
You left something undone, it's now your rerun
It's the one you can't erase
You should have made it right, so you wouldn't have to fight
To put a smile back on your face
Chorus
You fall away from your past
But it's following you
You fall away from your past
But it's following you
You fall away
You fall away
Bridge - All C# with some Ab accents every once and a while. Savvy?
Something I've done that I can't outrun
Something I've done that I can't outrun
Maybe you should wait maybe you should run
But there's something you've said that can't be undone
Chorus
And you fall away from your past
But It's following you
You fall away from your past
But It's following you
You fall away from your past
But It's following you
You fall away from your past
But It's following you
[x3]
You fall away
It's following you
You fall away
Outro: Modify the intro a bit ;)
Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know,
everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our
joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and
forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every
young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of
morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar", every "supreme leader", every saint and sinner in the
history of our species lived there on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.
- Carl Sagan
