Verse
I have a house on the edge of the sea,
Built with my hands on the rock, not the sand
And the earth will tremble beneath my floor
And the Sea she will pound her fist on my door
But I, trust the foundation...
Chorus
Don't take me back If you don't want to,
Don't take me back, Oh I said
Don't take me back If you don't want to,
I won't come home, I won't come home,
Don't take me back If you don't want to,
Da Da Da Dum, Da Da Da Dum, Da Da Da Dum X2
I have a bird that I ride out over the sea,
I see colors when she sings, I see her holes, in her wings
And the wind will howl, and thrash all night,
But our bones, our bones are hollow and light,
Don't you see, trust in my bones...
Don't take me back If you don't want to,
Don't take me back, Oh I said
Don't take me back If you don't want to,
I won't come home, I won't come home,
Don't take me back If you don't want to,
Ohhhhh Woah Oh oh
No
Ohhhhh Woah Oh oh
Brother won't you let me go
Home, I never had a home, before...
Da Da Da Dum, Da Da Da Dum, Da Da Dum X2
And the wind will howl, and thrash all night,
But our bones, are bones are hollow and light,
Don't you see, I trust in my bones...
Don't take me back If you don't want to,
Don't take me back, Oh I said
Don't take me back If you don't want to,
I won't come home, I won't come home,
Don't take me back
Hoo Hoo (This over the chorus from above, with the Em changing to G)
