[Verse]
C                    Bm          G    D 
Hold on loose, don't grip me so tight 
         C                    Bm                     G 
I've got no wings to fly but this spirit's taking flight 
 
     C                          Bm                   G    D 
So tonight, we'll dance, let's pretend we rule this town 
    C 
In tomorrow's dawn 
Bm            G 
I'll be long gone 
G 
Long gone, long gone

       C              Bm              G 
Don't hold me loose, please grip me tight 
    C                   Bm                   G 
My lungs are paper dry, from fear of losing sight 
 
C                     Bm                        G 
Take my palms, we'll build a wall around this town 
       C              Bm             G 
In tomorrow's dawn, you'll be long gone 
G 
Long gone, long gone
