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

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