[A] [D]
[A] [D]
[A] [D]
[A] [G] [D] I don't know [A] [G] why, [D]
over [A] the railing [G] of [D] your crowd,
when [A] you bow and [G] [D]
say [E] just set it, set [G] it away,
to be left [A] behind,
[D]
looking [A] for such lovely [D] shots,
the maps [A] appear,
[D] the [E] brilliant prisms take [G] you in,
[A] and the sea was all I [E] ate,
as it was all I [G] ate,
and you,
[D]
[A] it's how we know now,
[E] you'll never go [G] back,
to the [D] place,
[A] you'll never go [D]
[A] [D]
back,
[A] [G] never go [D] back,
[A] never go [D] back,
never go back,
back to [A] the day,
[G] [D] I had [A] this second piece [D] of the bag,
wanted [A] to keep,
[D] my top,
[E] the leader of [G] your gang,
wanted [A] the heart,
[D] but the [A] illusion,
where were [D] we finally,
until [A] we do,
[D] the [E] opposite of truth,
and of truth,
we [G] divide them,
[A] and the sea was all I [E] ate,
as it was all I [G] ate,
and you,
[D]
[A] it's how we know now,
[E] you'll never go [G] back,
never [D] go back,
[Em]
never go back,
[A]
with [D] the trinket of [Em] science,
to hang on,
to do a bang on,
[A] the impression [D] of a young sorrow,
[Em] is tied in,
[E] firing [A] love [D] sirens,
going fighting,
[Em] to crying,
the rising [A] star dying,
[D] through the soul of [Em] virus,
is tied in,
firing love [A]
sirens,
[G] [D]
[A] [D]
[A] go [D] back,
[A] [D]
[A] and the sea was all I [E] ate,
as it was all [G] I ate,
and you,
[D]
[A] it's how we know [E] now,
you'll never go [G] back,
[D]
[A] and the sea was all I [E] ate,
as it was all [G] I ate,
and you,
[D]
[A] it's how we know [E] now,
you'll never go [G] back,
[D]
[A] [G] go [D] back,
[A] go [D] back,
never go back,
[A] go back,
