G
[Verse]
G G7 C
There behind me lies the wreckage, shattered dreams and empty skies
D7 G
Wasted life like haunted ruins, haunted by the ghost of lies
G G7 C
There lies the past and I can't mend it, not with deeds or words or tears
D7 G G7
Look at all those wasted hours, think of all those wasted years
[Chorus]
C G
As I flee from all this sorrow, I keep crying to my mind
C G D7
Crying, "Run, run to tomorrow, don't look behind, don't look behind"
G G7 C
I dare not look, I dare not face it, ashamed of things I've done
D7 G
How can I mend the heart I've broken? What can I do? What else but run?

[Chorus]

As I flee from all this sorrow, I keep crying to my mind

Crying, "Run, run to tomorrow, don't look behind, don't look behind"
G G7 C
I dare not look, I dare not face it, afraid of things I'll see
D7 G
Memories and a broken heart chasing after me
[Outro]

Afraid I'll find... a worried mind
C D7 G
Don't look behind... don't look behind
