       C#m A
Tie me down
         B              C#m
I'll go wild, I'll go wild
                A
You can't hold down
             B                 C#m
A homeless child, a homeless child

A                            B
No man was born to be locked up
                         C#m
No man is born to not be free
A
We're here to live, we're here to love
               B               C#m
We're here to touch, feel and see

Chorus:
         G#m           F#m
When the lows get too heavy
       G#m              F#m
I must teach myself to climb
       C#m  A
Tie me down
        B             C#m
I'll go wild, I'll go wild
               A
You can't hold down
           B                 C#m
A homeless child, a homeless child

A                             B
Behind the cloth, behind the paint
                     C#m
Behind the flesh and bones
                             B
Behind the laughter and the pain
                        C#m
Behind the eyes lies my soul

Chorus:
          G#m            F#m
When the tears get too heavy
        G#m              F#m
I must teach myself to cry
       C#m A
Tie me down
         B             C#m
I'll go wild, I'll go wild
                A
You can't hold down
             B                 C#m
A homeless child, a homeless child

B                       C#m
Oh, there's got to be a way
                  A      B
I'm a hunter for better days

       C#m  A
Tie me down
         B             C#m
I'll go wild, I'll go wild
                A
You can't hold down
             B                C#m
A homeless child, a homeless child - x3
