Bbm
My life's a prison

Gets me down
             Db
I've spent a lifetime in this sleepy old town
         Ebm
I need a straightaway
                     Bbm
So I can get up some speed
Bbm
If dreams were money

I'd have it made
                 Db
Cause I've had a thousand dreams watch them all fade
         Ebm
I need a straightaway
                     Bbm
So I can get up some speed
           Db                      Ab
I have the same old dream each and every night
         Ebm                         Bbm
I'm on a jet black highway without a curve in sight
Db                  Ab
Take that dream and hold on tight
           Ebm
You know I gotta get away
Gb       Bbm     Gb     Ab
I need a straightaway
         Bbm     Gb     Ab
I need a straightaway
         Bbm     Gb     Ab
I need a straightaway
         Gb
I need a straightaway
      Bbm
Yes I do
Bbm
I'm like a tiger

Pace my cage
        Db
Working forty hour weeks for no wage
                Ebm
I need a straightaway
                     Bbm
So I can get up some speed

My life's a prison

Gets me down
             Db
I've spent a lifetime in this sleepy old town
         Ebm
I need a straightaway
                    Bbm
So I can get up some speed
           Db                      Ab
I have the same old dream each and every night
         Ebm                         Bbm
I'm on a jet black highway without a curve in sight
Db                  Ab
Take that dream and hold on tight
           Ebm
You know I gotta get away
Gb       Bbm     Gb     Ab
I need a straightaway
         Bbm     Gb     Ab
I need a straightaway
         Bbm     Gb     Ab
I need a straightaway
         Gb
I need a straightaway
      Bbm
Yes I do
