 G#m I'm like a cat in a cage locked F#/A# up and battered and bruised E I am the prodigal son a shameful prodigy too G#m I am the love of your life F#/A# battering ram and confused E I turn each day into night I stand there waiting for you G#m There is desire to fight but F#/A# I have nothing to prove E With the crowd and some lights I start to feel things move G#m Do you have something to hide? F#/A# Cause I think that we all do E I am a child inside back up and give me some room Chorus: B I'm just a bastard child don't let it go to your head E I'm just a waste of your time maybe I'm better off dead B They turn us loose in the night a fucking Jekyll and Hyde E We'll have the time of our lives although we're dying inside G#m So let me go go So let me go go E Just let me go go I'd rather go it alone B So let me go go So let me go go E Just let me go go I'm never coming home G#m Don't start to panic for me F#/A# cause I have nothing to lose E I am as bright as the sun I burn up all that I choose G#m Up on the side of the field F#/A# I see a city with lights E I touch her face when I kneel she tells me she's not alive G#m I am too nervous to run F#/A# the kids who scatter and hide E Still reach and grab for someone but end up buried alive G#m Her world is waiting for me F#/A# a world that I rarely used E I start to feel my feet they kick down walls as they move Chorus - x2 You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#  B  E  F#  G#m  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
