[Intro]
Dm A Dm A
Bb F A A
Dm A Dm C
Bb A Dm Dm
[Verse]
Dm A Dm A
From the window I see the mountains
Bb F A A
They roll like tidal waves across the horizon
Dm A Dm C
The rain cascades down, like lava it consumes
Bb A Dm
Everything on its journey to the bottom
Dm A Dm A
From the window I hear the aching groaning wind
Bb F A A
It forces its way through the cracks onto my skin
Dm A Dm C
I long to climb out, to be swept up in its wrath
Bb A Dm
But I can't break through the bars that keep me in
[Chorus]
Bb C Dm Dm
There's nothing I want more then to sleep under a night sky
Bb C Dm
Hear the animals as they go about their lives
Bb C F Dm
Feel a fire warm my body, feel the mud under my toes
Bb A Dm
But tonight this cell keeps me enclosed
[Verse]
Dm A Dm A
The trees form a secret green embrace
Bb F A A
Their arms beckoning to swallow me whole
Dm A Dm A
I want to climb over these rooftops and over these fences
Bb A Dm
And escape to the places none of these guards would go
[Chorus]
Bb C Dm Dm
There's nothing I want more then to sleep under a night sky
Bb C Dm
Hear the animals as they go about their lives
Bb C F Dm
Feel a fire warm my body, feel the mud under my toes
Bb A Dm
But tonight this cell keeps me enclosed
[Verse]
Dm A Dm A
Sitting here I prepare myself for the future
Bb F A A
When instead of one month I could be here for years
Dm A Dm C
Would I lose hope, would I take my life
Bb A Dm
Or would we find a way to break ourselves out of here?
[Chorus]
Bb C Dm A
There's nothing I want more then to sleep under a night sky
Bb C Dm
Hear the animals as they go about their lives
Bb C F Dm
Feel a fire warm my body, feel the mud under my toes
Bb A Dm
But tonight this cell keeps me enclosed
[Bridge]
Bb C Dm Dm
For if we don't have our freedom if we are captured by their iron hands
Bb C Dm
Then the vision for fire it burns so much more bright
Bb C F Dm
There's no justice in this system, a bigger cage is still a prison
Bb A Dm
Well I hope that somewhere someone breaks free tonight
[Outro]
Bb A Dm
