Go By
Elliott Smith
[Intro] +9 [Verse 1] Go on and parade and fade Hit the scene and slow Spending all your time with some girl You’ll never get to know Wound up tight Dressed all in white Some torn mainsail Blowing out to drift Leave you even if You live up in your head Scared of every little noise Someone always breaking in accidentally Using nothing but their voice Shrill and small echo down the hall Re- peating pet names See it in your eyes---- you’re only passing by-------------- Bdim Go by--- Go by---- Bdim Go by---- Go by---- [Verse 2] Someone’s in the way Of pretty words and inside slurs All the things they have to say To perform the work that they’ve rehearsed It’s a waste of time I’d put it behind me once and for all And let the high decline------ If the problem wasn’t mine---- Bdim Go by--- Go by---- Bdim Go by---- Go by---- Bdim Go by---- Go by---- Bdim Go by---- Go by----
