Bm
You took the tunnel route home;
        A                G
you've never taken that way with me before
Bm                          A    G
Did you feel the need for change?
  Bm
Apologies on your fingernails,
 A                     G
love flickered in the city of lights,
Bm                       A    G
Like intermittent radio waves

Bm                 A  G
I don't need your tears
Bm                 D
I don't want your love
I’ve just gotta get home

Chorus:
G                            D
And I feel like I'm breaking up,
       A
and I wanted to stay,
Em                     D
Headlights on the hillside,
       A
don't take me this way,
G                         D
I don't want you to hold me;
   A
I want you to pray,
Em                   D A
This is bigger than us

You went where the horses cry
You'd never taken that way with me before
Did you feel a need for change?
Guilt smeared across your lips
I was tired and cold from the window
You're tired nothing's changed

I don't need your tears
I don't want your love
I've just got to get home

Chorus - x4
