[E] [Em] [D]
I have not been home since [G] you left long [A] ago
[D]
I'm thumbing my way back to [G] hell
[E] [D]
Counting steps, [G] walking backwards on the [A] road
I'm [D]
counting my way [G] back to hell
[E] I [G]
can't be free with what's locked inside of [C] me
If there [Am] was a key, you took [G] it in your hand
There's no wrong or right, but I'm sure there's good and [C] bad
No [Am] questions linger [G] overhead
No [D] matter how cold the winter, [G] there's a springtime [E] ahead

From [C] this lonely [Em] overpass
[Bb] Hang my head and count my steps [F] as another car goes past
[G] All the rusted signs we ignored throughout [C] our lives
Choosing [Am] the shiny ones [G] instead
I turn my back, now there's no turning [C] back
[Am]
No [G]
[D] matter how cold the winter, [G] there's a springtime [E] ahead
[D] Smile, but who am [G] I kidding?
[E] [A]
