Chorus 1
F
C
Don't you wanna get away
G
Am
from the same old part you gotta play
F
'Cause I got what you need,
C
G
so come with me and take the ride
Am
G
It'll take you to the other side
F
'Cause you can do like you do
C
Or you can do like me
G
Stay in the cage,
Am
or you'll finally take the key
F
C
G
Oh, damn! Suddenly you're free to fly
E
It'll take you to the other
Verse 2
Am
(side) Okay, my friend,
G
you want to cut me in
F
Well I hate to tell you,
E
but it just won't happen
Am
So thanks, but no
G
I think I'm good to go
F
'Cause I quite enjoy the life
E
you say I'm trapped in
F
Now I admire you,
C
and that whole show you do
G
Am
G
You're onto something, really it's something
F
But I live among the swells,
C
and we don't pick up peanut shells
D
E
I'll have to leave that up to you
Chorus 2
F
C
Don't you know that I'm okay
G
Am
with this uptown part I get to play
F
'Cause I got what what I need
C
G
and I don't want to take the ride
Am
G
I don't need to see the other side
F
So go and do like like you do
C
I'm good to do like me
G
Ain't in a cage,
Am
so I don't need to take the key
F
C
G
Oh, damn! Can't you see I'm doing fine
E
I don't need to see the other
Bridge 1
F
(side) Now is this really how you like
C
to spend your days?
G
Whiskey and misery,
Am
G
and parties and plays
F
If I were mixed up with you,
C
I'd be the talk of the town
G
Disgraced and disowned,
E
another one of the clowns
F
But you would finally live a little,
C
finally laugh a little
G
Just let me give you
Am
G
the freedom to dream
F
And it'll wake you up and cure your aching
D
Take your walls and start 'em breaking
F
Now that's a deal that seems worth taking
Dm
E
But I guess I'll leave that up to you
Bridge 2
Am
Well it's intriguing,
but to go would cost me greatly
So what percentage of the show
would I be taking?
Dm
Fair enough,
you'd want a piece of all the action
Am
I'd give you seven,
we could shake and and make it happen
E
I wasn't born this morning,
eighteen would be just just fine
F
Why not just go ahead
and ask for nickels on the dime
E
Fifteen
I'd do eight
F
Twelve
Maybe nine
E
Ten
Chorus 3
F
C
Don't you wanna get away
G
Am
to a whole new part you're you're gonna play
F
'Cause I got what you need,
C
G
so come with me and take the ride
Am
G
To the other side
F
So if you do like I do
C
So if you do like me
G
Forget the cage,
Am
'cause we know how to make the key
F
C
G
Oh, damn! Suddenly we're free to fly
Am
G
We're going to the other side
F
So if you do like I do
C
(To the other side)
G
Am
So if you do like me
F
'Cause if we do we're going
C
G
to the other side
E
We're going to the other side
