I know we just got here
        A
but i think it's time to go
   G                A                   D
I didn't want to believe it but now i know
D
you know who just walked in
         A
and she didn't come alone
   G              A               D
I can't stand to see this get me home

Chorus:
D
Take me away
A
I'm gonna hurt somebody
Bm                  G
take me away right now
D
how could she say
A
she wanted more you better
Bm                  G
take me away right now

I thought she was perfect she thought
I was perfect too
Perfect until she found someone new
Now I'm stuck here watching her
I can't take this abuse
What does this guy do that I can't do?

Chorus

Take me away
I'm gonna hurt somebody
Take me away
Right now
How could she say
She wanted more
You better take me away
Right now
Take me away (ooh)
Take me away
Right now
How could she say
She wanted more
You better take me away
Right now
Right now
