let overlayHTML = `
<button onclick="goBack()">Go Back</button>
`
let overlay = document.createElement("div");
    overlay.innerHTML = overlayHTML;
    document.body.appendChild(overlay);

function goBack() {
  window.history.back();
}

I am assuming you know how to make the beginning of the userscript

//@match   www.thewebsite.com

etc

go back previouse page javascript
