LYRICS & CHORDS
(Note! - I play this song in standard tuning with the low E dropped to a D & capo on 2. The chords below are the chords for playing with NO CAPO - if you use a capo, change them: E to D, A to G, B to A, C#m to Bm, F#m to Em)

E
Light don't stick to you
Like it used to do
A
Think you've lost your shine

E
Wishing days away
Busy chasing trains
A
Leaving us behind

C#m
Let's get a ticket for those tracks
B
Don't say a word and don't look back
A
Let's get out of here (x2)

C#m
We can get lost between the rails
B A
We've never been afraid to fail

E
If you dig up your roots
Then I'll dig up my roots
A
And we can take them with us
Wherever we go
E
And all that we are
Is in the beat of hearts
A
And I know we're ready
C#m - B - A - E
To dive into the unknown, 'cause I'm caught in the middle
B - A
I'd rather break out on my own, 'cause I'm caught in the middle

E
Sights set to the sky
Sick of standing by
A
Getting itchy feet

E
Need some new places
Meet some new faces
A
No one left to please

(prechorus)
(chorus)

F#m
We're carrying our roots
A
In everything we do
C#m - B
You know there's nothing left here for us
F#m
We've got everything we need
A
It takes a leap to plant the seed
C#m - B
You know there's nothing left here for us

(chorus x2)
