Intro
A Bm D F#m G (x4)
[Verse 1]
A
It's not about regret
Bm
I just haven't settled yet
D
I won't compromise our future
F#m G
For the things we'll never get
A
In a monochrome wide expanse
Bm
Where I got locked in a trance
D
Now we've got to take our shot
F#m G
Or I fear we'll never get the chance
[Chorus]
D G
Heads up high and don't look down
A
Let's get the hell out of this town
G
Drive away and don't turn back
We'll find a better place than
D G
These gray and broken towers for miles
A
We won't be safe yet for a while
G
We'll drive away until the end of the road
A
When it feels like home
[Instrumental]
A Bm D F#m G (x2)
[Verse 2]
A
Meet me out beside the lake
Bm
Where we drowned our past mistakes
D
I will always hold these memories
F#m G
But that's all I'm going to take
A
Snap a Polaroid for the road
Bm
For the end of this episode
D
I know we've always tried to leave this
F#m G
But it's hard to let it go
[Chorus]
D G
Heads up high and don't look down
A
Let's get the hell out of this town
G
Drive away and don't turn back
We'll find a better place than
D G
These gray and broken towers for miles
A
We won't be safe yet for a while
G
We'll drive away until the end of the road
When it feels like home
[Verse 3]
A
We could build our own commune
Bm
Find a way up to the moon
D
We could start again off world
E
Across the stars
G
There's a way out left for us
A
At the city in the dust
Bm
Some say there's a hope
D
So far from where we are
A
Find the ocean on the coast
Bm
Drive away and leave your ghost
D
They'll be looking for us now
E
But we'll be gone
G
And if they ever find us out
A
We'll go as far as they allow
Bm
Then we'll embrace until our end
D
As the sky carries us on
[Instrumental]
A Bm D F#m G (x3)
[Chorus]
D G
Heads up high and don't look down
A
Let's get the hell out of this town
G
Drive away and don't turn back
We'll find a better place than
D G
These gray and broken towers for miles
A
We won't be safe yet for a while
G
We'll drive away until the end of the road
D
When it feels like home
