Chords in this song7
Song
I'm adopting some abbreviations for this song because firstly, this song is easier
to play with a pick because there are some special strumming patterns
r=ring the chord
D=downstroke
u=upstroke
(d,u,d, stop)=quick downstroke,upstroke then downstroke then silencing the chord
D (d,u,d,u)=change to D chord on the 1st 'u' stroke, so the 1st 'd' stroke in the
sequence is still a C chord (very tough to catch this for me, must admit)
NORMAL=normal d,u pick strokes

Intro (d,stop,d,u, muted d,u strokes)
I am 'ow I feel
I am 'ow I feel
I am 'ow...
Verse (d,stop,d,u, muted d,u strokes continue)
I close my eyes and make a wish for
Inner peace and tranquillity inside
My mind I feel it's changing
Breaking down the defences of my heart
It's like a new adventure
And it's just my life

Chorus (NORMAL)
I'm running away-y. Running away from you
Though I beg you to stay-y -y. I'm running away from you

Miss reli-able. So method-ical
Wanna be indivi-dual. And ori-ginal
So rad-ical. And desi-rable

Put a message in a bottle
Watch it sail across the ocean blue-e
So free of limitations
A vision I can only fantasize
I'm floating in a new direction
As this is my life
