C           Em                 C              Em
Gone, so gone I want to get away from this place

   C            Em                     C             Em
Home is not where I want to be, not today, take me away
              C                  Em            C                 Em 
I am on my way, 12 hours on a plane. In a short time I'll be on my way

   C         Em                    C            Em
Lone, all alone, I flew out by myself to meet my friends
       C         Em                        C               Em
From there, we got into a van, there was reggae on the radio
               C     Em                  C     Em  
You have no idea, ohhhhh, you have no idea, ohhhhh
           C     Em    C  Em  
This is life, ohhhhh
           C       Em
Land-man know, he's there
      C         Em
He knows, he's there

     C    Em                                C            Em
Long, so long, since I've been out on the road it's not for me
      C       Em                                   C            Em
And all, and all I want to do is leave but not today, take me away
                   C                      Em  
Well I am on my way to an island on the sea
            C                      Em 
I will escape and Lord I be will free

   C  Em               C               Em
Free, so free from this place, from this place
C                      Em            
I love this world and all it can do for me
C                      Em         
I love this world and all it can do for me
      C         Em            C         Em
But I know, he's there, but I know, he's there
           C     Em               C     Em 
This is life, ohhhhh, this is life, yeahhhh
           C       Em
Land-man know, he's there
      C         Em
He knows, he's there
