I don't need a parachute

You don't need to ask if I'm okay

enough to do this on my own
G
I pack my bags to leave this town
Em                                    D
Cause I'm not welcome back here any more

I'm so sorry for the greed, Sorry for the hate,
                G/B
Sorry for the mess I left you

But I don't want it back, I don't need it back
                      D
I don't need a parachute.
