Don’t Look Back in Anger Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Slip inside the eye of your mind

Don't you know you might find

A better place to play?

You said that you'd never been

But all the things that you've seen

Will slowly fade away

[Pre-Chorus]

So I start a revolution from my bed

'Cause you said the brains I had went to my head

Step outside, summertime's in bloom

Stand up beside the fireplace

Take that look from off your face

You ain't ever gonna burn my heart out

[Chorus]

And so, Sally can wait

She knows it's too late as we're walkin' on by

Her soul slides away

"But don't look back in anger," I heard you say

[Verse 2]

Take me to the place where you go

Where nobody knows

If it's night or day

Please don't put your life in the hands

Of a rock 'n' roll band

Who'll throw it all away

[Pre-Chorus]

I'm gonna start a revolution from my bed

'Cause you said the brains I had went to my head

Step outside, 'cause summertime's in bloom

Stand up beside the fireplace

Take that look from off your face

'Cause you ain't ever gonna burn my heart out

[Chorus]

And so, Sally can wait

She knows it's too late as she's walking on by

My soul slides away

"But don't look back in anger," I heard you say

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

So, Sally can wait

She knows it's too late as we're walking on by

Her soul slides away

"But don't look back in anger," I heard you say

So, Sally can wait

She knows it's too late as she's walking on by

My soul slides away

"But don't look back in anger

Don't look back in anger," I heard you say

[Outro]

"At least not today"
