Verse
C#m B
I found my fear in the ashes of this town as it burned
C#m B
When the smoke entered my lungs, I suffocated on lessons I learned
C#m B
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)
C#m B
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)
C#m B
Suddenly I saw everything that I never could have done with you here
[Chorus]
A C#m
Don't turn around now there's no road back home
B
(No fear to hold you back, just say you want it, say you want it more)
A C#m B
The bridges all burned down, everything you know is lost
F#m
Nobody ever leaves
But this town won't take the best of me
[Instrumental]

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