Standard (EADGBE)

throught the whole song, listen to the recording for when it's fingerpicking and when

it's strumming,

I’ve packed my life in a bag

Boxes named my past

Sitting in my now so empty room

With a plane-ticket in my hand

I’ve said goodbye to my best friend

He said ”take care dear, I hope I see you again”

I’m starring at the one-way ticket in my hand

I’ve decided to leave

and never come back

This town has taken too much from me

Oh I think I failed my youth

The nights I cried he whispered softly

”One day we’ll start something new”

And those pills and mirrors are choking me

I can’t seem to stand myself

Those scars and memories are killing me

All those long nights with demons in my head

I’m reading those familiar words

Written up on my walls

With a one-way plane ticket in my hand

I’ve decided to leave

And I’m never coming back

Oh no I can’t come back here no more

(It’s time to let it go)

Oh my youth is killing me

It’s killing

(It’s time to start something new)

I need to find some kind of piece

(I’m leaving tonight)

Is there some kind of piece within me?

I’m leaving tonight, I’m leaving, I’m leaving

(I need to find my way)

And I can’t come back

No I’m never coming back

I’ve packed my life in a bag

Holding a plane ticket in the other hand

Well goodbye then, dear old past

I’m leaving tonight

And I’m never coming back
