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

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