Jason Collett - Gabe from the album: Motor Motel Love Songs
Watsup, the lyrics are likely off as I don't have the booklet, also on the B
chord and sometimes the C# you can throw a hammer on and
pull-off with your pinky as you see fit, sounds good on the B.

Gabe,
BF#
what?s your hurry to get laid?
BG#m
Are you still worried that you?ve got nothin? to say?
EG#mC#
Me, I don?t hesitate. It?s your day, and it?s slippin? away.
F#
Gabe,
BF#
You?ve got a funny way of sayin? what you mean.
BG#m
Stand naked in the shadow of a dream.
E
You can hide from yourself,
G#m
But not from me.
C#B
Oh Gabe, don?t walk away,
F#B
?Cause you almost flew, and you almost fell,
F#Ebm
When I look at you, I can almost tell,
G#mE
Oh Gabe, you got a-way
C#
You got a-way
F#BF#
Gabe, you know I?m sorry to keep hurtin? you this way.
BG#m
But you?ve been lettin? me and that is sad,
EG#m
So come a little closer, to me,
C#
I come to see you?ve changed,
B
All over again.
F#B
And I almost flew, and I almost fell,
F#Ebm
When I look at you, I can almost tell,
G#mE
Oh Gabe, you got a-way
C#
You got a-way

F#BF#
Gabe, there?s a small dark look in your eyes.
BG#m
An abandoned tear for a troubled goodbye.
E
Whispers speak,
G#m
Tongue in cheek,
C#
Love too meek,
B
Godspeed.
F#B
As we almost flew, and we almost fell.
F#Ebm
And when I look at you, I can almost tell.
G#mEC#
Oh Gabe, you got a-way, you got a-way.
BF#B
?Cause you almost flew, and you almost fell,

And when I look at you, I can almost tell.
Great song!
