Lyrics

Right here, right now, I put the of fer out I don’t wan na chase you down, I (E)know you see it You run with me and I can cut you free, out of the drudg er y and (E)walls you keep in

So trade your typ i cal for some thin’ col or ful, and if it’s cra zy (Am)live a lit tle (G)cra zy You can play it sen si ble, and a king of con ven tion al, or you can risk it all and (E)see

(Fsus2)Don’t you (C)wan na get a way from the (G)same old (Am7)part you got ta play?

’Cause I (Fsus2)got what you need, so come with me and take the ride

It ’ll take you (Am7)to the (G)oth er side ’Cause you can do like you do, or you can do like me Stay in the cage, or you (Am)fi nal ly take the key (Fsus2)Oh damn, (C)sud den ly you’re free to fly

It ’ll take you (E)to the oth er side O kay my friend, you wan na cut me in Well, I hate to tell you, but it (E)just won’t hap pen So thanks, but no I think I’m good to go, I quite en joy the life you (E)say I’m trapped in

Now I ad mire i you and that whole show you do You’re on to some thin’ (Am)Real ly, it’s tle (G)some thin’ But I live a mong the swells and we don’t pick up pea nut shells I’ll have to leave that up to (E)you

(Fsus2)Don’t you (C)know that I’m o kay with this (G)up town (Am7)part I get to play?

’Cause I (Fsus2)got what I need, and I don’t wan na take the ride

I don’t need to (Am7)see the (G)oth er side So go and do like you do I’m good to do like me Ain’t in a cage, so I (Am)don’t need to take the key (Fsus2)Oh damn, (C)can’t you see I’m do ing fine?

I don’t need to (E)to the oth er side (E)see the oth er Is (F)this real ly how you’d like to (C)spend your days?

Whis key and mis er y and (Am)par ties and plays?

If I were (F)mixed up with you I’d be the (C)talk of the town, dis graced and dis owned, an oth er (E7)one of the clowns But you would (F)fi nal ly live a lit tle, fi n’lly laugh a lit tle Just let me give you the free dom to dream, and it ’ll (F)wake you up and cure your ach in’, take your walls and start ’em break in’ Now that’s a deal that seems worth tak in’ but I guess I’ll leave that up to (E7)you

Well, it’s in trigu ing, but to go would cost me great ly So what per cent age of the show would I be tak ing?

Well, fair e nough, you’d want a piece of all the ac tion I’d give you sev en We could shake and make it hap pen I was n’t born this morn ing Eight een would be just fine Why not just go a head and ask for nick els on the dime?

Fif teen I’d do eight Twelve May be nine (E)Ten!

(Fsus2)Don’t you (C)wan na get a way to a (G)whole new (Am7)part you’re gon na play?

’Cause I (Fsus2)got what you need, so come with me and take the ride

(Am7)to the (G)oth er side So if you do like I do, So if you do like me for get the cage, ’cause we (Am)know how to make the key (Fsus2)Oh damn, (C)sud den ly we’re free to fly

We’re go in’ (E)to the oth er (CN.C.)side
