[Intro]
G Em G D C G Em G D C G
[Verse 1]
Em G
Blind boy staring down the barrel of a gun
D C
Unaware of the rage of the chosen ones
Em G
Freedom rings like a boxer's bell
D C
Take take till there's nothing left
Em G D
This bleeding heart won't slow down
C
Until it rests on sacred ground
Em G
Been torn apart, I didn't pack for war
D C
Anchors up and all aboard
[Chorus]
D Em
Swinging high but feeling low
C G
Could you point me to roads paved in gold
D C G
Take my hand and don't slow down
Em D
Been trapped and bound
G Em G D C G Em G D C
So let me out
[Verse 2]
Em G
East coast living to a westbound train
D C G Em
This local motion brings you to your knees
G D
We picked our sides, picked up our lives
C
Sorting out the wrong from right
[Chorus]
D Em
Swinging high but feeling low
C G
Could you point me to roads paved in gold
D C G
Take my hand and don't slow down
Em D
Been trapped and bound
C
So let me
[Bridge]
C G C
We sold our souls
Em G D C
For a night to feel we're in control
G Em D
Don't slow down
G
Just let me out
[Outro]
Em G D C G Em G D C G
