Fade Away I Dont Want To

D              (D)         G       D
Some set their hearts on a rocking chair,
    D         (D)           A         (A)
the better to sleep out the days.
        Bm            A         G        A
But I'm looking for a reason to kick and scream,
G               A     D        (D)
I don't want to fade away.

[Intro 2]
| G          | A          | G    A     | D          |

[Verse 1]
   D              D        G      D
We think that the power is in our hands
           D             D       A        A
'cos we're holding the remote control.
Bm          A       G           A
Pile up the lot and what've you got,
F#m          F#m        G          G
bitter-sweet nothing at all.

[Pre-Chorus]
D              D           G       D
Some set their hearts on a rocking chair,
    D         D             A         A
the better to sleep out the days.
        Bm            A         G        A
But I'm looking for a reason to kick and scream,
G               A     D        D
I don't want to fade away.

[Chorus]
      G    G       A      A
Fade away,   fade away,
G               A     D          D
I don't want to fade away.
      G    G       A      A
Fade away,   fade away,
G               A     D          D
I don't want to fade away.

[Interlude]
| G          | A          | G    A     | D          |

[Verse 2]
       D           D           G         D
It's a mighty long way from my own front door
       D             D        A        A
to the world we were going to make.
       Bm           A               G     A
We got bloodied and bruised for the old excuse,
          F#m       F#m      G          G
that it's hard just staying awake.

[Pre-Chorus]
D              D           G       D
Some set their hearts on a rocking chair,
    D         D             A         A
the better to sleep out the days.
        Bm            A         G        A
But I'm looking for a reason to kick and scream,
G               A     D        D
I don't want to fade away.

[Chorus]
      G    G       A      A
Fade away,   fade away,
G               A     D          D
I don't want to fade away.
      G    G       A      A
Fade away,   fade away,
G               A     D          D
I don't want to fade away.

[Interlude]
| G          | A          | G    A     | D          |

[Verse 3]
D       (D)       G        D
Wake me up if you catch me falling,
D      (D)      A        (A)
gently into the night.
Bm          A            G         A
Shine up my shoes 'cos I can't get used
       F#m   F#m    G          G
to the dying of the light.

[Pre-Chorus]
D              D           G       D
Some set their hearts on a rocking chair,
    D         D             A         A
the better to sleep out the days.
        Bm            A         G        A
But I'm looking for a reason to kick and scream,
G               A     D        D
I don't want to fade away.

[End-Chorus]
      G    G       A      A
Fade away,   fade away,
G               A     D          D
I don't want to fade away.
      G    G       A      A
Fade away,   fade away,
G               A     D          D
I don't want to fade away.

I don't want to fade away.
