F
Sending out to the boy in the front row
G
Singing his heart out
I've been there before

elbow to elbow but lost in the crowd
G
He screams
He dreams and goes down
F
They steal every word
Straight from your mouth
G
Dare you to breath
Dare you to drown
F
It's over
G
Just wake me when it's over
I will thank you
C
For hanging around
This town
Chorus 1:
C
It's a long way back
F
Home from here
Just tell me what you want
C
'Cause I'm over and out
But I'm not done
F

Cause I'm not acting
like I'm somebody else
F
'Cause that's not me
Oh no
