[First Part]


F           C
Put me on a chain

F               C
You put me in a box

F               C
You put me in a cage

        G
And you start throwin’ rocks


F             C
I offer up my heart

F             C
I offer up my soul

F                C
You wanted me to dance

       G               F  C
I just wanna rock n roll

[Chorus]


Am           G                    
I don’t know what I’m supposed to 

F       C
say sometimes

         Am        G
Where to draw that line

           F  C
You oughta know

Am     G            F           
Nobody cares if the words don’t 

C
rhyme

Am             G
If you say the right ones

[Second Part]


F               C
I waited in the rain

F                  C
Pulled out all the stops

F                 C
Walked out on the stage

      G
And I played until we dropped


F                C
I tore the place apart

F            C
Left ‘em all alone

F              C
I wanna take a chance

         G                F  C
You just wanna take it slow

[Chorus]


Am           G                    
I don’t know what I’m supposed to 

F       C
say sometimes

         Am        G
Where to draw that line

           F  C
You oughta know

Am     G            F           
Nobody cares if the words don’t 

C
rhyme

Am             G
If you say the right ones

[Bridge]


G
I’m downtown with a down crowd

F                                 
Drinkin’ my best not to think 

  G
about you

G
Just a fool’s hope at the end of my 
rope

F                                 
Sitting at the bar, praying for a 

G       F  C
miracle

[Chorus]


Am           G                    
I don’t know what I’m supposed to 

F       C
say sometimes

         Am        G
Where to draw that line

           F  C
You oughta know

Am     G            F           
Nobody cares if the words don’t 

C
rhyme

Am             G         F   C
If you say the right ones


Am           G                    
I don’t know what I’m supposed to 

F       C

         Am        G
