D G A
Dust falls on the empty halls of my old school
D G A
Where the memories fade like the casualty, a forgotten fool
D G A
Now wide-eyed has become the blind of spoken rule
D A
As equal only deep is now the word
G A
The lesson's not the answer you once heard

D A G
"Don't turn your back on me, don't ever let me down"
D A G
She said, "I picked you up each time before you hit the ground
D A G
Your selfish face is now erased when someone mentions you
D A
And the darkness that you left is overstepped aside
G A
Will disappear in clouds, the sun arrives

D G A D G A
Within a mile of home within a mile of home"

D G A
Oh worry, oh my worry has it been that long?
D G A
The whistle keeps on blowing but the chill's all gone
D G A
His empty frame cannot explain, there's nothing left inside
D A
So sing to me a song from yesterday
G A
When laughter filled the tears that we now make

D A G
"Don't turn your back on me, don't ever let me down"
D A G
She said, "I picked you up each time before you hit the ground
D A G
Your selfish face is now erased when someone mentions you
D A
If only you had seen what I now see
G A
And turned the corner where you would of been

D G A D G A
Within a mile of home within a mile of home"
