Well, that doesn't surprise me You could come up and stay here a while, back off from the killing wheel I used to think it was me who'd somehow sold out or given in on some almighty cause, But what difference would it make? It feels good to be out here. Ch: I'm never going back there I'm never going back to the bad old world End: Em, C/G, D, D 2x
