Intro: G  A  A7M  G  A  
 
Verse 1: 
A 
A simple love song 
        A7M     
A simple love gone wrong 
                     G 
A simple way to cope 
 
With six years of lovestrong 
        A 
Then gone 
 
I speak of Colorado 5591 
                              A7M 
Where there's a paxil-plated morning sun 
                                   G 
A hug every now and then from everyone 
           A 
In Colorado 5591 
 
Chorus 1: 
 
But would you take it away, boys? 
 
Take it away 
                             A7M 
Would you take this pain away? 
 
Take it away 
                          G 
Would you take it away, boys? 
           A 
Take it away 
 
Verse 2: 
 
And through this great parade I walked alone 
                                    A7M 
And trying to be heard through a different song 
                                        G 
But the music too loud or the crowd was too strong 
                          A 
I kept to myself, I kept alone 
 
And many friends that I have lost 
                      A7M 
And many friends that I've found 
                                 G 
You see we all wanna stay on this thing called the common ground 
                       A 
We've got to find this common ground 
 
Chorus 2: 
 
But would you take it away, boys? 
 
Take it away 
                       A7M 
Would you take my pain away? 
 
Take it away 
                        G 
Would you take it away, boys? 
              A 
Take it away
