Denims and curls, is this all that you are?
G D A G D A G
No, I think there's something more behind that barricaded door
D A G D A
Are you hiding in a bedroom singing away to someone else's tune?
G D A G D A
Are you frightened by the forces we have unleashed in all our passion?
[Bridge 1]
G A G A
Those who see, you never see, and those who hear, you never hear

Run little girl
[Verse 2]

Sack cloth and curls, is this all that you are?
G D A G D A G
Is this all that others see? Then they're blind as well as stupid

They can lock you away just for thinking out loud and throw away the key

Never caring how you feel or what is or isn't real
[Bridge 2]

This foolish world will hold you down, screw your feet into the ground

Just like that night on the sands, I was there too

I held your hand, Oh
[Chorus 1]

Where in the world is your inspiration to say the things you're aching to say?

Where in the world is your inspiration to say the things you're aching to say?

Wherever that turns out to be go there this day
G A
That's what my teacher said to me
