There is the browser button but you said you want a button in your form so you can create it, for example with Bootstrap :

<a href="javascript:history.back()" class="btn btn-primary">Back</a>

Use this for laravel (bootstrap + fontawesome)

<a href="{{ URL::previous() }}" class="btn btn-warning"> <i class="fas fa-arrow-left"></i> Go Back</a>
