Brings me back, back here again,

I've got to find my own way.

The priest and the magician,

My father to the left of me,
Abdim/D Db
My mother to the right,

Like everyone else they're pointing
Ab Dbsus4 Db
But nowhere feels quite right.

He won't take me for a ride.

Find a door

That doesn't lead me back again
F#/Db Ab/Eb
- take me away.
