You spin round as the world stands still

Em F C G Am F
you wa-a-a-ke to find that your still here in your beautiful cage
The salt of the earth and the salt of the sea

outside these walls the world floats by
you cry all night long till sleep comes down
you wake to find that your still here in your beautiful cage
