Capo 1
Lyrics/chords are written for solo, which is different from the song, especially at the
end, so just keep that in mind.
The switch between F to Fm is basically pulling off the G string for a beat, which I
think sounds entirely more accurate!

And it repeats like that in the certain parts of the song it's played in
[Intro]
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
[Verse 1]
Your house that sits behind me is covered in ivy green
The windows that we watch from are old and chipping at the beam
[Chorus]
Takes me away, takes me away, takes me away
Takes me away, takes me away, takes me away
Oooh oooh oooh oooh
Oooh oooh oooh oooh
[Verse 2]
The scent you wear moves in lines from your apartment into mine, mine
You act like you don't know me
My god you tempt my anxious mind, mind
[Chorus]
Takes me away, takes me away, takes me away
Takes me away, takes me away, takes me away
Oooh oooh oooh oooh
Oooh oooh oooh oooh
[Bridge]
Would it be much better if I knew, nothing about you
Would it be much better if I knew, nothing about you
Would it be much better if I knew, nothing about you
Would it be much better if I knew, nothing about you
[Refrain]
I'll go I'll go I'll go I
I'll go I'll go I'll go I
I'll go I'll go I'll go I
I'll go I'll go I'll go I
I'll go I'll go I'll go I
I'll go I'll go I'll go I
I'll go I'll go I'll go I
I'll go I'll go I'll go I
[Chorus with Refrain repeating]
Takes me away takes me away take me away
Takes me away takes me away take me away
