[Verse I]
A E F#m
I can sense departure in the air
D A E
Now it's only the past that we share
A E F#m
Divided at a parting of the road
D A E
Where I could ride on or lighten the load
[Chorus I]
D A
I've been dreaming of a town
E F#m D
Where the lost and found and wrong way round are bound
E A
For departure
D A E F#m
I've been comfortably numb but a change is gonna come
D
Like a storm
E A
Driving down through the streets
E C#
from mount Desolation's peak
D E A
To make you pure for departure
F#m D A
Uhhh for departure
[Verse II]
A E F#m
Lover we have fought and we have laughed
D A E
At every obstacle thrown in our path
A E . F#m
The things have gotta change before I crack
D A E
Before I get so lost I can't get back
[Chorus II]
D A
I've been dreaming of a town
E F#m D
Where the lost and found and wrong way round are bound
E A
For departure
D A
I woke up at the mouth
E F#m D
Of a river in the south of this land
E A
Where the tide and the stones
E C#
Strip the troubles from your bones
D
And make you glad
E A
Of departure
[Bridge]
E E
I'll treasure til I'm dead
Bm A
Everything we have said and done
E
For the voice in my head is telling me
A
I'd best be moving on
F#m D
Cause the decent folk don't want me
E A
Everywhere my missteps haunt me
F#m D
But the fears that always stalked me
E
Seem to fade away
[Chorus II]
D A
When I start dreaming of a town
E F#m D
Where the lost and found and wrong way round are bound
E A
For departure
D A
I woke up at the mouth
E F#m D
Of a river in the south of this land
E A
Where the tide and the stones
E C#
Strip the troubles from your bones
D
And make you glad
E A
Of departure
E A
Where the tide and the stones
E C#
Strip the troubles from your bones
D
And make you glad
E A
Of departure
[Outro]
D A
The death of love, the death of love
E A
It's nothing to be scared of
D E A
It's just a light switching off
[Verse I]
