[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][C][D]
[G][C][D][G]
[D]Mea[C]nwhile back in the year

[Verse 1]
[A]
one
[C]When you belonged to no [A]one
[C]You didn't sta[G]nd a c[A]hance, son
[C]If your pants wer[G]e un [C]done
[D]

[Verse 2]
'Cause you were bred,
[G]for[D] hu[G]manity
[D]And sold [G]to society
One day you'll [D]wake up, in the present [G]day
A [C]million generations re
[Bb]moved from expectations
[D]Of being who you [G]really want to [A]be
[G]Skat[D]ing away,

[Verse 3]
skating away, skating away
On the thin [G]ice of the new [C]day
[G][D]

[Verse 4]
[G]
So as you push off from
the [D]shore
Won't you turn your head once [G]more[A]
And make your peace
with every[D]one[G]
For those who choose to stay
[D]Will live just one more day[G][A]
To do the things they should've [D]done
[G]And as you cross the wilderness
Spin[A]ning in your emptiness
If you have [D]to, [G]pray
Looking for a sign,
that the uni[C]versal minds
[D]Has written you into [G]the passion [A]play
[D]Skating

[Verse 5]
away, skating [Dsus4]away,
[D]skating away
On the [G]thin ice of the new [C]day
[G][D]

[Verse 6]
[G]
And as you cross the circle line
[D]Well, the ice wall creaks behin[G]d
[A]You're a rabbit on the[D] run[G]
And the silver splinters [D]fly
In the corner of your [A]eye
Shining in the setting sun
[D]Well, do you eve[G]r get the feeling
That the [A]story's too damn real
And in the [D]present tense?
Or [G]that everybody's on the stage
[F]An d [C]it seems like you're the [G]only
[D]Person sitting in [G]the audi[A]ence?
[D]Skating

[Verse 7]
away, skating away, skating away
On [G]the thin ice of the new [C]day
[G][D]

[Verse 8]
Skating away, skating away, skating away
