  Take everything you know and write it on your skin
                    C#
  Then you can carry on and forget everything
                      B                    F#
  Take everything you own and put it in your car
                C#
  You can drive away, drive away so far
                    B                         F#
  Then drive into a lake and take off all your clothes
                      C#
  Set your clothes on fire, now you are alone
                         B                  F#
  But you've got all you know written on your skin
                  C#
  So you can carry on and forget everything
