Verse:
GG/B
It's out of control (out of control)
CD
And there's nothing I can do now
GG/B
Out of control (out of control)
CD
Swimming softly through the blue now
BmEm
And look beyond these walls
AmBmC
As the meaning starts to dawn
D (Em-D-C)
It's getting to the point
G
Getting to the point.
Verse:
GG/B
It's out of control (nothing I can do)
CD
Like a fire that keeps on burning
GG/B
And nobody knows (what I'm going through)
CD
And the thoughts just keep returning
BmEm
And all you had to say
AmBmC
Was that you were gonna stay
D (Em-D-C)
It's getting to the point
DG
It's getting to the point.
Chorus:
GDC
It's getting to the point
G/B(no 3rd)
Where nobody can stop it now
GDC
It's getting to the point
G/B(no 3rd)
Of no return
GDC
And all that I can do
GEm
Is stand and watch it now
AmBmD
Watch it burn, burn, burn
GDC
It's getting to the point
G/B(no 3rd)
Where reasons are forgotten
GDC
It's getting to the point
G/B(no 3rd)
Where no one knows
GDC
And all that I can do
GEm
Is say I'm sorry
AmBmC
But that's the way it goes...
DG
Getting to the point.
Verse:
Forever
Is a long, long way
Forever
Takes your breath away
I'd like to talk about it, try to understand
It's getting to the point
Getting to the point.
Chorus:
It's getting to the point
Where nobody can stop it now
It's getting to the point
Of no return
And all that I can do
Is stand and watch it now
Watch it burn, burn, burn
It's getting to the point
Where reasons are forgotten
It's getting to the point
Where no one knows
And all that I can do
Is say I'm sorry
AmBmD
But that's the way it goes...
