I do not own this song or any of the lyrics. I simply Love the band. I noticed a few album versions of the song but not the unplugged (Live) version which has a additional ending as well as add-in lyrics and different chords in places. This is the unplugged version with the additional ending esc. I also find this version graceful with nice backing vocals and a bass back-up, but because we are not all in bands it sounds perfect solo. Chords: Em9 (AKA: Em/D), D, Bm, A, G, C, E Intro: Em9 D Bm A x2 Verse 1: Em9 D Bm A Crash and Burn, All the stars explode tonight Em9 D Bm A How'd you get so desperate?, How'd you stay alive?

C D A And I knew, Love would tear you apart C D A E Oh, And i knew, the darkest secret of your heart Chorus: G Em Hey, hey, hey D A Im gonna follow you G Em Oh, baby drive away, yeah D A To Malibu G Em D A Oceans of Angels, Oceans of Stars G Em D A Down by the Sea, yeah, is where you drown your scars, uh-oh G Em D A I Cant be near you, the light just radiates G Em D A I cant be near you, the light just radiates (Just when they all thought it was over, this happened: Outro (additional): Em D Em A x2 (Softly) Em D Em A (Softly) Hey.., Baby, Im Gonna rescue you, Im gonna set you free Em D Em A Tonight, Uh-huh, Im gonna rescue you, Im gonna set you free (Heavier)Em D Bm A (Heavier)Tonight! Uh-huh! I will rescue you, Im gonna set you free! Em D Bm A Hey! Uh-huh! I will rescue you, Im gonna set-you-free! Em D Bm A Tonight, Uh-huh! I will rescue you, Im gonna set you free! Em D Bm A And I Cant be near you!, the light just radiates Em D Bm A Baby, I cant be near you!, the light just radiates! (Softly) Em D Em A- (Softly) Hey.., Baby, I will rescue you, Im gonna set you Free! -end- This song gains in places and you really have to give it a listen a few times to get the rhythm and vocals down good. Courtney has a way of pronouncing things while she is singing, its a groove you have to get into with practice. Awesome Song though, its worth it. Fun to play live or in your bedroom :) If this was hard to understand forgive me its my first try at this.
