Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: C
[Intro]
F Dm Bb C Dm
[Verse 1]
Bb C Dm
A cold and early dawn
Bb C Dm C
For a man gone so wrong
F C Dm
Another lonely way of wasting time
Bb C Dm
So late into the night
[Bridge 1]
Dm C G Dm C G Dm
[Verse 2]
C G Dm
It wasn't long ago I was counting my days
C G Dm
With anger and boredom and fear and pain
C G Dm
Back then I just wanted to even the score
C G Bb
The pain doesn't translate the same anymore
[Chorus]
C
I'm not going back again
Dm
I'm not the man I was back then
C G
I will start again
Bb
I will start again
C
I'm not going back my friend
Dm C G Dm
I'm not the man I was back then
[Verse 3]
C G Dm
I couldn't slow it down I know I got mean
C G Dm
I couldn't feel a thing, they couldn't touch me
C G Dm
None of those young girls could understand
C G
How slowly killing oneself takes
Bb
A toll on man
[Chorus]

I'm not going back again

I'm not the man I was back then

I will start again

I will start again

And i'm thinking for myself

I'm not going back my friend
