B
It's another day
      E
Wanna get away
      B
from here There's
a plane up on a
 E
runway Gonna run
          C#m
away from here
Cause the rain
   D#m E
is so terribly
            C#m
dull And it bores
me Yeah misery
D#m E     Em
adores me

Chorus:
I want to break
B
out and get away
               G#m
I want to just try
and live for me
Cause if we don't
F#
try then we won't
believe that we
          E
could've had it
               B
I want to let go
and fall for you
And when it gets
G#m
rough be your
parachute I want
           F#
to do the things
that you only read
               E     G
about Are you ready?

I'm done with small-town politics
I need to make my way
to where the action is
I'm done with it,
so the question is
Are you coming with?
'Cause baby, if you like,
I'll take you there
Imagine all the places we
could go to disappear
Or we could turn the light
off and go back to bed
Stare at the stars on your
ceiling and pretend that
we're somewhere else

Chorus:
I wanna break out and get away
I wanna just try and live for me
'Cause if we don't try then
we won't believe
that we could have had it
I wanna let go, and fall for you
And when it gets rough,
be your parachute
I wanna do the things that
you only read about
Are you ready?

G#m
We don't need
a god to take a
          B
leap of faith
Listen when I say
that if we don't
F#
try Then we
         E
won't believe

Chorus:
I wanna break out and get away
I wanna just try and live for me
'Cause if we don't
try then we won't believe
That we could have had it
I wanna let go, and fall for you
And when it gets rough,
be your parachute
I wanna do the things
that you only read about
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
'Cause I'm ready
I wanna do the things
that you only read about
Are you ready?
