      All I'm able to see,       (dkl) left behind
                                         because I made up my mind,I'm back to

2ND VERSE: (played same as 1st Verse, starting from 2nd staff)

Moving forward toward my future
All my problems solved
Thinking all alone
Safety of my home
Things I call my own
And now they're left behind because I need some time
I'm back to

     Sometimes I'm so strange,  (dkl)  left behind because I need some time,
                                                                  I'm back to

Notes:
-In the 1st 7 measures of the Verse, I'm not sure if the part written as a
 hammer on is actually a hammer on or if the notes are struck individually.
 Have a listen to decide.
-Guitar chords are included above the staff.
-Lyrics: There are 4 or more lines in this song I can't make out clearly, so
 be aware that some of the lyrics are less than accurate. (dkl) in the tab
 means "don't know lyric".

/...slide up                        h...hammer on
\...slide down
