^G#I'm like a cat in a cage, locked up and ^A#battered and ^Ebruised I am the prodigal son, a shameful prodigy too ^G#I am the love of your life, battering ^A#ram and ^Econfused

I turn each day into night, I stand there waiting for you

^G#There is desire to fight, but I have ^A#nothing to ^Eprove With the crowd and some lights, I start to feel things move ^G#Do you have something to hide? 'Cause I think ^A#that we all ^Edo

I am a child inside, back up and give me some room

^BI'm just a bastard child, don't let it go to your head ^EI'm just a waste of your time, maybe I'm better off dead ^BThey turn us loose in the night, I'm fucking Jekyll and Hyde ^EWe'll have the time of our lives although we're dying inside

^G#So let me go, go So let me go, go ^EJust let me go, go

I'd rather go it alone

^BSo let me go, go So let me go, go ^EJust let me go, go

I'm never coming home B C# G# E

^G#Don't start to panic for me, 'cause I have ^A#nothing to ^Elose I am as bright as the sun, I burn up all that I choose ^G#Up on the side of the field I see a ^A#city with ^Elights

I touch her face when I kneel, she tells me she's not alive

^G#I am too nervous to run, the kids who ^A#scatter and ^Ehide Still reach and grab for someone, but end up buried alive ^G#Her world is waiting for me, a world that ^A#I rarely ^Eused

I start to feel my feet, they kick down walls as they move

^G#So let me go, go So let me go, go ^EJust let me go, go

I'd rather go it alone

^BSo let me go, go So let me go, go ^EJust let me go, go
