Verse
Fm D#
I found my fear in the ashes of this town as it burned
Fm D#
When the smoke entered my lungs, I suffocated on lessons I learned
Fm D#
Made it out of the fire, ran away just in time
(My home, this place will never change. I know what's best. I just can't stay)
Fm D#
Tried to kill my desire, tried to hold me here all of my life
(All these memories won't be erased, but it's time to make my own way)
Fm D#
Suddenly I saw everything that I never could have done with you here
[Chorus]
Db Fm
Don't turn around now there's no road back home
D#
(No fear to hold you back, just say you want it, say you want it more)
Db Fm D#
The bridges all burned down, everything you know is lost
A#m
Nobody ever leaves
But this town won't take the best of me
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Fm
You dream about (every hope) hidden away (but just below)
Cm D#
The surface of your skin, so coarse but oh so thin
Fm
You're terrified (of letting go)
Nothing is reaped until it's sown
Cm D#
No time to give in this one life we live
Db D#
Moving forward is not failing
[Chorus]
Db Fm
Don't turn around now there's no road back home
D#
(No fear to hold you back, just say you want it, say you want it more)
Db Fm D#
The bridges all burned down, everything you know is lost
A#m
Nobody ever leaves
But this town won't take the best of me
[Instrumental]

Db
When you feel your heart pumping in your chest
Ab Cm
And ignites the spark that you've always felt
Db Ab Cm D#
Do you trust yourself? Don't push those thoughts away
Db
Can you feel the life flowing through your veins?
Ab Cm D#
It never mattered what the voices say
Db Fm
Life's not about how you fall
F Gb
(It's about how many times you can get up)
Ab
You made it this far with the courage you had
Gb
You carried the weight of it all
Ab
Every dead end just begins a new path
Gb A#m
Oh, the places we'll go
