House of Sugar, 2019
Standard tuning - Capo 1
This is the way I play this song. Probably not 100% accurate. Some live videos of this song
recently dropped and the way Alex plays it live sounds different than the studio version.
This tab is more in line with the studio version.

[Chorus]
I don't wanna go back
Nobodys gonna push me off track
I see what they do
Good people got something to lose
I don't wanna go back
Nobodys gonna push me off track
I don't wanna be this
Good people gotta fight to exist
