Verse 1
=======
D Em G
They`re trying hard to put me in my place
Bm A G
And that is why I`ve gotta keep runnin`
D Em G
The future`s mine and it`s no disgrace
Bm A G
Cos in the end the past means nothing
You tell me I`m free then you tie me down
And from my chains I think it`s a pity
What did it cost you to wear my crown
You don`t like me why don`t you admit it
Pre-chorus
=========
A Em
D`you feel a little down today
G D
Bet you ain`t got much to say
A Em
But you`re gonna miss me when I`m not there
G
You know I don`t care
