Metre is a fast 3/4. The notes are played with a triplety swing: have a listen to get it right!

WHOLE SONG:
INTRO:
- - | - - | - - | - - || x3
I'm drifting down
While you scream past my head
Fire away, fly away
I wonder what you said
- - | - - | - - | - - ||
And i'm watching you
Bare your teeth in a growl
Throwing your way
Back and forth 'til now
- - | - - ||
And i'm here in oblivion
I don't feel anything
When, it's time to begin again
(E7)
I won't remember anything at all
[Here the main pattern appears reversed, with the E7 before the Dadd2, not after]
(E7) - - | Dadd2 - - ||
- - | - - | - - | - - || x2
Could it be something that i said
That's making you put poison pins in my bed
And i would feel sorry if i could
So fire away, fly away, if you think you should
I'm in oblivion
I'm in oblivion
I'm in oblivion
'blivion, 'blivion, i'm...
(End of song)
Hope you enjoy! It's a lot of fun to play and sing.
Peace, Lukewa
