[C]
[Am]Got to

[Verse 1]
[G]get off of the islan[C]d,
[G]got to get over [Gsus4]the sea[C]
Liv[G]in' with [Gsus4]liberties, [C]lady,
no [Gsus4]longer appeals to[C] me
The [G]people down here in [C]the village
are [Gsus4]destined to [G]com[C]plicate
They [G]cover their eye[C]s, ears, open their mouth,
and [G]talk [Gsus4]about commun[C]ique
[G]Got to get off, got to [C]get away, [G]got to get off, get [C]away,
[Am]got [G]to get off of the island[C], got [G]to get o[Gsus4]ff, get [G]away[C]
I'm [Am]going to [G]sail on a ship to
[C]Missouri, the wo[G]man awaiting [C]me
She [G]never learns not to [C]worry, and
Mis[Gsus4]souri's where I w[C]ish to be
So [G]goodbye, [C]farewell,
I'm [G]leaving my second [C]home
Liv[G]ing the life of the [C]outlaw
And [G]winding up all [C]alone
[G]Got to get off, got to [C]get away
[G]Got to get off, get [C]away
[G]Got to get off of the is[C]land
[G]Got to get off,
[C]get [G]away[C][G][C][G][C][G]
[Gsus4][G][C]
I've [G]got to get off [Gsus4]of the is[C]land,
[G]got to [Gsus4]get over [G]the s[C]ea
[G]Livin' with liberty's lad[C]y
No [G]longer [C]appeals to me
Got [G]to get off, got to [C]get away
[G]Got to get off, get [C]away
[G]Got to get off of the is[C]land
[G]Got to get off, get [C]away[G][C][G][C]
[G]Got to get off of the is[C]land,
[G]get off, get off, [C]get away.
