Oh I’ll run away, far from this place I’ll go

Am Fmaj7/C C G

Back to Horsehead Bay, out in Washington

Fmaj7/C C Am G C

(x2)

Fmaj7/C C Am G C

Oh I’ll put up a wall, to distance myself from it all

Fmaj7/C C Am G C

And inside I stood tall, where no one could hear me fall

Fmaj7/C C Am G C

And the nails I hear they've grown old, they've rusted under the cold

Fmaj7/C C Am G C

And inside I stand tall, because I hammered them home

Am Fmaj7/C C

Oh I’ll run away, far from this place I’ll go

Cause it ain't my home

Am Fmaj7/C C G

Back to Horsehead Bay, out in Washington

Fmaj7/C C Am G C

And by my father I was told, that where you come from is gold

Fmaj7/C C Am G C

And it don’t matter where you go, it ain't never gonna feel quite like home

Fmaj7/C C Am G C

And I've been weathered and aged, from days spent out in the rain

Fmaj7/C C Am G C

And I got a feeling in my heart, that I’ll go back to the start

Am Fmaj7/C C

Oh I’ll run away, far from this place I’ll go

Cause it ain't my home

Am Fmaj7/C C

Back to Horsehead Bay, out in Washington

A place that I know

Am Fmaj7/C C

Oh I’ll run away, far from this place I’ll go

No it ain't my home

Am Fmaj7/C C

It's a place that I know

Fmaj7/C C Am G C
