D#m C# D#m C# (2x)
D#m C# D#m C#
Running away, I knew I was wrong
D#m C# D#m C#
I´d tried to fit in where I didn't belong
D#m C# D#m C#
Wearing their clothes, playing their games
D#m C# D#m C#
Being a part of that urban decay
CHORUS:
D#m C# B C# D#m C# B C#
Don't burn the fires, I'm never coming home (2x)
Repeat INTRO
D#m C# D#m C#
When the morning sky was cold and grey
D#m C# D#m C#
I could hear the whispers of my own mistakes
D#m C# D#m C#
Those warning eyes, that final touch
D#m C# D#m C#
No one seemed to care that much
CHORUS:
D#m C# B C# D#m C# B C#
Don't burn the fires, I'm never coming home (2x)

D#m C# (5x)
D#m C#
And when I'd reached my destination
D#m C#
I thought someday I might return
D#m C#
Cause deep inside was the need
D#m C#
to feel the home fires burn
D#m C#
But a faltering voice merely whispered my name
D#m C#
as if we'd never expected to hear it again,
D#m C#
and my heart grew cold to that indifferent sound
D#m C# D#m C#
as I slowly laid the receiver down
D#m C# B
Don't burn the fires,
Don't burn the fires
Don't burn the fires
D#m
I'm never coming home
(+SOLO)
D#m C# B
Don't burn the fires,
Don't burn the fires
Don't burn the fires
D#m
I'm never coming home!
