Tom: C
C G F C
The truth hits everyone like a million atom bombs
C G F C
And I can’t understand how everybody can be so calm
C G F C
Time is running out and they all just sit around
C G F C
So leave your message at the beep because I am leaving town
C G F C
Tell my girl I’m sorry but daddy’s gotta roam
C G F C
The only time I feel at ease is a thousand miles from home
C G F C
Tell the boys when I get back, whiskey shots on me
C G F C
But for now I got no time to spare and I got no time to bleed
[Chorus]
F G C Am
So raise your glass to a life off the grid
F G C
Raise full sails, pull anchor dead ahead
F G C Am
Starboard towards a future that is always unknown
F G C
And when this vessel sinks I’ll finally be home
[Verse 2]
C G F C
Another night, another town, another show to play
C G F C
Another friend, another pint, another girl’s heart breaks
C G F C
Drunk tired and starving, lost with no money
C G F C
But a stage and a crowd and a microphone is all we really need to be free
C G F C
So buy us another shot and throw us in the van
C G F C
If you give us no destination you’re giving us something we understand
[Chorus]
F G C Am
So raise your glass to a life off the grid
F G C
Raise full sails, pull anchor dead ahead
F G C Am
Starboard towards a future that is always unknown
F G C
And when this vessel sinks I’ll finally be home
(not sure about this next bit but it mostly seems right)
C G Am F
Now we’ve been drinking for way too long
C G Am
Pineapples and Gin pouring strong
C G Am F
And we’ve no money for gas-o-lean
C G Am
On me, live together, die free
F G C Am
So raise your glass to a life off the grid
F G C
Raise full sails, pull anchor dead ahead
F G C Am
Starboard towards a future that is always unknown
F G C
And when this vessel sinks I’ll finally be home
