Capo 5th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse1

Don't cry, try not to wait up for me tonight

I'm leaving for the future and it's bright

Being swept off my feet like a drifting kite

Verse2

And I'm regretting all the choices that I make

But I know we can learn from our mistakes

With every single new step that we take

Bridge1

I don't repeat myself I'm not a parrot

You know how I feel and that's apparent

Our final move's to win or lose

And I can't make you choose, it's up to you

Chorus

And I told you my roots will keep me honest

I'll be a good boy, that I promise

If I said that I won't leave then I'll stay true

And I told you, my roots will keep me honest

If there's a bus home I'll be on it

When I told you I'm not leaving you'll

Believe it when you see I'm back for you

Interlude

Verse3

Sit tight I'm up around the world to do my thing

And every word you say I'm listening

And when I wake up it will just be me

Bridge2

I might repeat myself am I a parrot

You know how I feel and that's apparent

Our final move's to win or lose

And I can't make you choose, it's up to you

Chorus

And I told you my roots will keep me honest

I'll be a good boy, that I promise

If I said that I won't leave then I'll stay true

And I told you, my roots will keep me honest

If there's a bus home I'll be on it

When I told you I'm not leaving you'll

Believe it when you see I'm back for you
