Way Away Lyrics

off the "Bread and Circus" CD

another in the "This is how I play it, guys" series
you should really hear the original song to get the rhythms right
(When you play the D, you should hammer on the A on the 3rd string)
verse1
Line of people to pass you by,
Posing sympathy with its whitewash eyes
Ladies feigning their mourning cries
And the men shaking hands
Weigh Away
Way away
All the pictures in your mind
As you're passed the thousandth time
Thousandth photograph
verse2
Listen to sympathetic lies
As their reasons change under mourning guise
With the gentlemen feigning sorrowed sighs
And drinking champagne
Weigh Away
Way away
As all the people pass and pose
You hold back the tears and hold
On to memories
verse3
Small talk hangs like a dirty cloud
Saying nothing real but deafening loud
An urge to run away from the crowd
And mourn all alone
Make a promise to no-one
Wondering if you'd been worthwhile
Turn away from the chatter
And the hungry smiles
