  @SONG: * LOOK AWAY

  (tabbed by randell@heinous.music.uiowa.edu

   and Paul Hutchinson <u9343164@qub.ac.uk>)

  

  (riff-see tab)  

  Saw her standing there

  Tears upon her cheeks told me something was wrong

  I asked her what it was

  She looked away and said, "My daddy's home"

  

  (riff)

  I knew what that meant

  It meant that I can never see you again

  I had seen this once before

  I didn't wanna deal with it anymore

  

     G       Em

      "Look away", she said

     D            D/F# G

      As she turned a-way from me

           Em

      And I tried to hold her

     D            D/F# G

      Couldn't let her be

              Em          D   D/F#

      Let her be, let her be

  

  (riff)

  I said "Why,

  Why do you make me cry"

  She said, "I love you so

  Look away, I don't wanna know"

  

  (riff)

  I saw her standing there

  Tears upon her cheek told me something's wrong

  I said, "What baby"

  She looked away and said, "My daddy's home"

  

      "Look away", she said

      As she turned away

      My God, I know I loved her, couldn't let her be

      Let her be, let her be

  

  (riff)

  Look away

  Look away

  She said, "I love you so

  Look away"
