(Great tune from the Out Of Time album)
Half A World Away
R.E.M
[Am]This could be the [G]saddest dusk I've [D]ever seen[Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2]
turn to a [Am]miracle, [G] high alive.[D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2]
My mind is [Am]racing, [G] as it al[D]ways will.[Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2]
My hands tired, my [Am]heart aches.
I'm [G]half a world away[D] here, [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2] my head sworn to [F]go it alone,
[F]and hold it along, [D]haul it along [Dsus4] and [D]hold [Dsus4]it.[D] [Dsus2]
[F]Go it alone, and hold it along. [D]Oh.....[Dsus4].........[D]..
[Dsus4]Oh [D] [Dsus2] lone[G]ly deep sit [D]hollow.[Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2]
Half a world, [Am]half a world away.[G]
My [D]shoes are gone, [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2] my life spent.[Am]
I've [G]had too much to drink.[D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2]
I didn't think, I [Am]didn't think of you.[G]
I [D]guess that's all [Dsus4] [D]I [Dsus2] need-ed.
To [F]go it alone, and hold it along, [D]haul it along,[Dsus4] and[D] hold[Dsus4] it.[D] [Dsus2]
[F]Backwards, blackbirds, forwards and fall.
[Dsus4]Oh [D] [Dsus2] lone[G]ly world is [D]wasted.[Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2]
Pathetic eyes, [Am]high alive.[G]
[D]Blind to the tide [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2] that turns the sea.[Am]
This [G]storm it came up strong.[D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2]
It shook the trees and [Am]blew away our fear.[G]
I [D]couldn't ev[Dsus4]en [D] [Dsus2] hear.
To g[F]o it alone, and hold it along, [D]haul it along,[Dsus4] and[D] hold[Dsus4] it.[D] [Dsus2]
[F]Go it alone, and hold it along. [D]Oh.....[Dsus4].........[D]..
[F]Go it alone, and hold it along, [D]haul it along,[Dsus4] and[D] hold[Dsus4] it.[D] [Dsus2]
[F]Blackbirds, backwards, forwards and fall.
[D]Oh....[Dsus4].........[D]. [Dsus4] Oh,[D] [Dsus2]
[G]this could be the [D]saddest dusk[Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2]
I ever seen [Am] turn to a [G]miracle, [D] [Dsus4] hig[D]h [Dsus2]alive.
[Am]My mind is [G]racing, [D] [Dsus4] as [D]it [Dsus2] al--ways will.
My [Am]hands tired, my h[G]eart aches.
I'm h[D]alf a world [Dsus4] a [D]- wa[Dsus2]y.
[Am] [D] [G]
