I’m heading down a one-way track
F#m
I’m leaving this town, ain’t lookin’ back

Gotta get out before I never see the light of day

Throwin’ caution to the wind

And the wind keeps pushin’ me back again

Trying to turn me around
F#m
I ain’t gonna stay
Em E
I ain’t gonna stay

Gotta find out who I’m gonna be

Ain’t gonna find it in this town

I finally got the courage to up and leave

They can waste their time

When it comes down to it,
