Capo at 3rd fret.   Intro: A5 G5 C5 G5 A5 
                                                  A G D C A 
    A5                                                                 G5        
As a child I was told that I was destined to be nothing 
D5                                                                      C5           G5                 A5 
  Growing wild as I got older I fulfilled what had been said, 
A5                                                                             G5                                      
Hiding ignorance and fear I prayed nobody saw me bluffing, 
                  D5                                                           C5     G5      A5 
   But I was laying the foundation for a future I would dread, 
A5               G5  D5   C5  G5   A5 
Yeah! Hmmmmm 
 

A5                                                                  G5                                         
   Seems like every choice I made would somehow leave me second guessing, 
     D5                                                                                               C5   G5   A5 
"Bout the green grass I was passing racing towards the other side, 
       A5                                                        G5              
   I thank God for the blessing, That I finally learned this lesson, 
                                    D5                                             C5           G5        A5 
One step in the right direction's worth a wasted mile behind, 
 
(Chorus) Singing 
            A5                                       G5                    D5     

                  C5    G5      A5 
    No more lookin" over my shoulder, No more hangin' onto the past, 
       A5                                             G5                D5        
     No more fillin' up my tomorrows, with yesterday's sorrows, 
      A5 N/c                                            A5             G5 
      No More Looking Over My Shoulder. 
        A5                                                                                G5                                                
I could chill a room with reasons why I would not give forgiveness, 
  D5                                                                     C5     G5    D5 
To the people who had selfishly left me a wounded soul, 
       A5                                                                                            G5                                               
I kept dragging 'rounds those memories, like a ball and chain behind me, 
 D5                                                                                 C5    G5                  D5 
Wonderin' why my troubles folloewd me wherever I would go, 
     A5                                            G5                                                             
Oh, but one night, sick and tired of bein' sick and tired, 
  D5                                                           C5   G5            A5 
I realized forgiveness was the only open road, 
         A5                                                           G5                                                                       
I swear I heard those shackles snap, the moment that I took that path, 
    D5                                                                                 C5    G5   A5 
I never have one time looked back, since the morning I arose, 
 
Repeat Chorus. 
   A5                                              
No More lookin' over my shoulder, no more hangin' on to the past, 

No more fillin' up my tomorrow's, with yesterdays sorrow 

No More, No more. No, No No More 
 
Repeat Chorus,
