[Intro]

E

[Verse]

E                 A       C#mThey say you're a dreamer
                  BYou've gotta move on
E            AForget about closure
          C#m                  BWe're the ones who've gotta be strong

E               A       C#mForget all your secrets
                    BYou can't keep them all
E                 AYou won't live forever
       C#m                BIf you never live life at all

[Chorus]
           EDon't look back
                  A                     C#mJust head for the sun when the curtains fall
                  BWe're setting the stage for the final run
E              A                      C#mThe tables are turned dark before the dawn
                BWe leave them behind when the lights turn on

ECan you hear me?
AAre you ready?
C#m              BWe're giving our best to you

ECan't you see me?
AI'm more than ready
C#m               BWe're leaving the rest to you

[Verse]
E            ARemember the silence
C#m          BRemember the day
E                   AThey burned all the lights out
         C#m              BAnd they came to take us away
E              ASo sing it out loud now
C#m              BCrash open these doors
E                    AWe're here and we're better
           C#m                      BYou're the ones that we're fighting for

[Chorus]
           EDon't look back
                  A                     C#mJust head for the sun when the curtains fall
                  BWe're setting the stage for the final run
E              A                      C#mThe tables are turned dark before the dawn
                BWe leave them behind when the lights turn on

ECan you hear me?
AAre you ready?
C#m              BWe're giving our best to you

ECan't you see me?
AI'm more than ready
C#m               BWe're leaving the rest to you

           EDon't look back
                  A                     C#mJust head for the sun when the curtains fall
                  BWe're setting the stage for the final run
E              A                      C#mThe tables are turned dark before the dawn
                BWe leave them behind when the lights turn on
