Take It Away


Take It Away
by SLASH, Eric Dover and Matt Sorum


from the album: It's Five O'Clock Somewhere
recorded by SLASH's Snakepit
released by Geffen Records February 14, 1995



You and I
Have been playing this game
For so damn long
And I don't know why
These cards are too old
So I'm gonna fold
Bye Bye
Bye Bye
Bye Bye

Party's over and all our friends
 are gone
Was it something I said, did we have
 too much fun
Guess you missed it, look around
It's never you who's to blame for
 bringing everyone down


It's never you who's to blame
For setting the stage
You want it your way

C'mon, C'mon, C'mon
Why don't you take it away
Take it away
Come on, take it away
Take it away
Take it away
Take it away
Why don't you take it away
Take it away

Bad rumors goin' round
Nothing said from my mouth
Why would you think
It's you
It's hitting too close to home now


Is it me or you
Who carries the weight
To deal with your pain
And don't you hate it too
It smothers and drains all the same

C'mon, Take it away
Take it away
Why don't you take it away
Take it away
Why don't you take it away
Take it away
C'mon, Take it away
Take it away
Take it away


Chorus

You and I
Have been doin' the time
For all of your crimes
And I don't know why
It don't make sense
It seems such a waste of time
Bye Bye
Bye Bye
Bye Bye

Chorus
