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