          Em7     A          Em7         A          Em7      A          C#m 
I take a step outside and I breathe the air  And I slam the door and I'm on
F#m 
my way
         Bm       E            Bm         E                 Bm      E 
I won't lay no blame  I won't call you  names 'Cause I've  made my break
       C#         F#m        x4343x   F#m         xx0630 xx0230 G 
And I won't look back  I've turned my back to those endless games.
The second verse is the same except:
         Bm7           E               Bm     E                Bm 
Shaking dust from my shoes  There's a road ahead And there's  no way  back
        D            E 
home  (No way)   But I have to say
A V.    A7sus      D V.                         x7999x x79797/slide down
Leavin' home ain't easy (Oh I never thought it would be easy)

A V.    A7sus     D V. F#    Bm  F7   A           E7     A      Dm9   A
