[Verse 1]
G D G
I had a lot that I thought I needed but
D Am
But I'd give it up for you, give you all I got

It's time that I know it,
Am D
Packed up and I'm going
[Chorus]
G D
Back to where I came from
Em A
The place I got my name from
C D* Em Em
Though it won't be the same as it was in those years
D C D G D G D
And I’m better off here
[Verse 2]
G D
There's nothing wrong with the places I've been in
G D
Nothing better, they're just a little different
Am D Am D
But somethings missing, it wasn't really living
G D
Won't miss the rush, the complication

I want the hush, the quiet inspiration

It's my life and I know it
Am D
I'm getting out and I'm going
[Chorus]

And I’m better off here
