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

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