[Verse 1]
 Am                       F
Nothing could bring me closer
 G                      Am
Nothing could bring me near
 Am                 F
Where is the road I follow
G              Am
To leave it? Leave
 Am                        F
It's under, under, under my feet
 G                          Am
The sea spread out there before me
  Am                     F
Where do I go when the land touches sea?
  G                   Am
There is my trust in what I believe
 
 
[Chorus]
 C                       Am
That's what keeps me, that's what keeps me
  C                   G
That's what keeps me down
   C            Am
To leave it, leave it
 G             F
Leave it all behind
 
 
[Verse 2]
 Am
Shifting the dream
 F                      G                 Am
Nothing could bring me further from my old friend time
  Am                       F
Shifting the dream, it's charging the scene
    G                       Am
I know where I marked the signs
  Am                     F
I suffer the dreams of a world gone mad
    G                     Am
I like it like that and I know it
  Am              F
I know it well, ugly and sweet
   G                      Am
I temper madness with an even extreme
  Am                    F
That's what keeps me, that's what keeps me
   G                 Am
That's what keeps me down
    Am
I say that I'm a bantam lightweight
    F                            G                   Am
I say that I'm a phantom airplane that never left the ground
 
 
[Chorus]
 C                       Am
That's what keeps me, that's what keeps me
  C                   G
That's what keeps me down
   C            Am
To leave it, leave it
 G             F
Leave it all behind
 
 
[Verse 3]
 Am         F
Lift me, lift me
   G          Am
I attain my dream
   Am             F
I lost myself, I lost the
   G           Am
Heartache calling me
   Am              F
I lost myself in sorrow
    G             Am
I lost myself in pain
  Am              F
I lost myself in gravity
         G            Am
Memory, leave, leave, leave
 
 
[Chorus]
 C                       Am
That's what keeps me, that's what keeps me
  C                   G
That's what keeps me down
   C            Am
To leave it, leave it
 G             F
Leave it all behind
 C                       Am
That's what keeps me, that's what keeps me
  C                   G
That's what keeps me down
   C            Am
To leave it, leave it
 G             F
Leave it all behind
 
 
[Verse 4]
  Am               F
Lift my hands, my eyes are still
  G                 Am
I'll walk into the sea
   Am                    F
Shoot myself in a different place
    G       N.C.
And leave it
   Am                       F
I've longed for this to take me
   G                 Am
I've longed for my release
     Am               F
I've waited for the calling
    G      Am
To leave, leave
 
 
[Outro]
 Am     F
Leave, leave
G         Am
   Yeah, leave
   Am       F
Leaving, leaving
G    Am
