A It makes you happy At least that's what you say D But you ain't Cinderella Who'd wanna be anyway? A Of all the things you wanted One thing you never got D Was to be treated like somebody Just to have one shot Chorus: A You can't go back D No, you can't go back But now you're thinkin' Of workin' on a dream You're not quite there yet You're somewhere in between I can hear you talkin' How you deserve the best A voice inside your head keeps sayin' Don't settle for less Chorus: A You can't go back, you've seen the world D You can't go back, you're a different girl A You can't go back, to who you were before D You can't go back, you always wanted more You have regrets But you can't change the past You want the real thing Is that too much to ask? For the first time in your life It gets to be your choice I feel you've found yourself, yeah You found your voice Chorus: You can't go back, you've seen the world You can't go back, you're a different girl You can't go back, to who you were before You can't go back, you always wanted more E You can see the future D It's in the stars E It's gonna be OK D This is who you are It's true you sold your body But you never sold your soul You don't need anyone It's you that's in control They can take away your innocence They can't erase your pride You've seen a better life You've seen the other side Chorus: B You can't go back, you've seen the world E You can't go back, you're a different girl B You can't go back, to who you were before E B You can't go back, you always wanted more E You can't go back B No, you can't go back You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA E Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
