verse 1
Em C
My spirit's free, you won't get me
B C
Into the box your life is locked in
Em C
Your value system's broken down
B C
I see it blocks the road it stopped in
[Refrão]G C
And every day the things you crave
B C
Make a play for my affection
G C
I tell you straight
Am
I won't be swayed
B
I'm walking in the opposite direction
Em G Am C
verse 2
Em C
They scream at me from flashing screens
B C
They hassle me from city walls
Em C
But these are other people's dreams
B C
They don't resemble mine at all
[Refrão]G C
And every day the things you crave
B C
Make a play for my affection
G C
I tell you straight
Am
I won't be swayed
B
I'm walking in the opposite direction
Em G Am C
verse 3
Em C
The stuff that you hold dear and high
B C
How does it warrant such devotion?
Em C
I think you've lost the reason why
B C
Though you still carry on the motion
[Refrão]G C
And every day the things you crave
B C
Make a play for my affection
G C
I tell you straight
Am
I won't be swayed
B
I'm walking in the opposite direction
