Great Escape Chords

   
The chords are not exactly accurate, but I think it sounds ok, and it's simply to play.
Enjoy! :)


Intro: C G Am F (x4)  

C
Paper bags and plastic hearts
G
All our belongings in shopping carts
           Am 
It's goodbye
     F
But we got one more night
C
Let's get drunk and ride around
G
And make peace with an empty town
Am                 F
We can make it right

Chorus:
          Am
Throw it away
             C
Forget yesterday
               F        G
We'll make the great escape
                Am
We won't hear a word they say
C                  F      G
They don't know us anyway
          Am
Watch it burn
          C
Let it die
       F                G         C G Am F (x2)  
Cause we are finally free tonight

C
Tonight will change our lives
G
It's so good to be by your side
           Am 
But we'll cry
      F
We won't give up the fight
C
We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs
G
And they'll think it's just cause we're young
    Am                 F
And we'll feel so alive

(Same chords as chorus before)
Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
Cause we are finally free tonight


Am
All of the wasted time
    C
The hours that were left behind me
F
Answers that we'll never find
G                              Am C F G (x2)  
They don't mean a thing tonight

(Repeat chords for chorus)
Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
Cause we are finally free tonight

End with: C G Am F (x3) C
