F
I've just reached a place
Am
Where the willow don't bend.
        Dm
There's not much more to be said
Dm/C      A#
It's the top of the end.
    F
I'm going,
     C
I'm going,
    Dm
I'm gone.

I'm closin' the book
On the pages and the text
And I don't really care
What happens next.
I'm just going,
I'm going,
I'm gone.

I been hangin' on threads,
I been playin' it straight,
Now, I've just got to cut loose
Before it gets late.
So I'm going,
I'm going,
I'm gone.

Am                                      G
Grandma said, "Boy, go and follow your heart
G                         C/G         G
And you'll be fine at the end of the line.
G                     C/G        G
All that's gold isn't meant to shine.
       Am                    C         D
Don't you and your one true love ever part."

I been walkin' the road,
I been livin' on the edge,
Now, I've just got to go
Before I get to the ledge.
So I'm going,
I'm just going,
I'm gone.
