[Intro]
D  G  A  A
D  G  A  A
 
[Verse]
D                 G                 A
Dust falls on the empty halls of my old school
          D                      G              A
Where the memories fade like the casualty, a forgotten fool
    D               G                 A
Now wide-eyed has become the blind of spoken rule
   Bm                         G
As equal only deep is now the word
    D                                A
The lesson's not the answer you once heard
 
[Chorus]
                 D                 A           G
"Don't turn your back on me, don't ever let me down"
             D                  A               G
She said, "I picked you up each time before you hit the ground
             D            A                  G
Your selfish face is now erased when someone mentions you
        Bm                            G
And the darkness that you left is overstepped aside 
     D                              A
Will disappear in clouds, the sun arrives
 
[Post-Chorus]
     N.C.        D  G  A  A                       D  G  A  A
Within a mile of home              within a mile of home"
 
[Verse]
   D            G            A
Oh worry, oh my worry has it been that long?
    D                G               A
The whistle keeps on blowing but the chill's all gone
          D              G                      A
His empty frame cannot explain, there's nothing left inside
   Bm                           G
So sing to me a song from yesterday
     D                                     A
When laughter filled the tears that we now make
 
[Chorus]
                 D                 A           G
"Don't turn your back on me, don't ever let me down"
             D                  A               G
She said, "I picked you up each time before you hit the ground
             D            A                  G
Your selfish face is now erased when someone mentions you
   Bm                           G
If only you had seen what I now see
    D                                    A
And turned the corner where you would of been
 
[Post-Chorus]
     N.C.        D  G  A  A                       D  G  A  A
Within a mile of home              within a mile of home"

[Bridge]
   F                     Am                G        G
So sing to me, sing me a song, a song from yesterday
             F                                      Am                          G    G
And when the laughter turned these tears before the promises, then they'll slip away
 
[Final-Chorus]
                F                            Am                            G    G
Don't turn your back on me, dont't turn your back on me, don't ever let me down
                F                            Am                            G    G
Don't turn your back on me, dont't turn your back on me, don't ever let me down
         F                     Am                            G    G
We are within a mile, we are within a mile, within a mile of home
         F                     Am                            G    G
We are within a mile, we are within a mile, within a mile of home
         F                     Am                            G    G
We are within a mile, we are within a mile, within a mile of home
         F                     Am                            G    G
We are within a mile, we are within a mile, within a mile of home
