Today I went and bought myself a bottle
Like we used to do, reminded me of you.
Today I saw a train roll by the river
Blowing off its steam, reminded me of me
That's when I threw the bottle in the river,
That's when I started running for the train.
There's nothing that you need I cant deliver
Carry me away, carry me away
Think it's seven or nine California time
He who said he(it) was a small one(world) was either a liar or a fool,
'cos its not true.
And the promises we make are as easy to break
As the plastic people on a wedding cake
So says you, to know I do.
For the next part, play G and Am like this:
(I saw him do it this way in concert)

play the G and C bass notes with your ring finger
I hear you thinking
From far away
I just a-keep-on lyin' and cryin' and tryin' and drinkin'
I'm gonna carry me away, carry me away
If you think about me
From far away
I hope you find her with me or without me
carry me away, carry me away...etc..fade out
seeya,
eric

To[Am]day I [Em]went and b[C]ought mys[G]elf a b[Am]ottle
Like we used to d[G]o, reminded me of y[Am]ou.
To[Am]day I s[Em]aw a tr[C]ain roll [G]by the r[Am]iver
Blowing off its st[G]eam, reminded me of [Am]me
Th[G]at's when I threw the bottle in the r[Am]iver,
Th[G]at's when I started running for the t[Am]rain. [G] [C] [Em]
There's n[Am]othing t[Em]hat you n[C]eed I c[G]ant de[Am]liver
Carry me aw[G]ay, carry me aw[Am]ay
Think it's s[Am]even or n[Em]ine Calif[C]ornia t[G]ime
He who s[Am]aid he(it) was a small one(world) was either a liar or a f[G]ool,
'cos its not true.
And the pr[Am]omises we m[Em]ake are as e[C]asy to b[G]reak
As the p[Am]lastic people on a wedding cake
So says y[G]ou, to know I [Am]do.
