Lions In Cages

	  		
verse 1 
Ebm                            Gb 
I got a big heart, I got a big mouth 
                                           Db 
I dug a big hole and now I’m trying to get out 
                    Ab 
Without hurting you, without hurting you 

verse 2 
Ebm                                          Gb 
I’m squeezing your hand as you picked up the pace 
                                               Db 
You were hard on the gas and I was hard on the breaks 
                       Ab 
I’m no good for you yea but we don’t speak the truth 

Pre-Chorus 
             B 
Cause if you don’t try nothing ever changes 
      Ebm 
If we don’t try no one ever saves us 
      Db 
If we don’t try we’re the weakest of the bravest 

The numbers on the pages 

We’re lions in our cages 
      B 
If we don’t try the clocks stand still 
      Ebm 
If we don’t try it’s a bit uphill 
      Db 
If we don’t try we’re the weakest of the bravest 

The numbers on the pages 
      Gb 
We’re lions in our cages 

Ebm               Gb 
Hey, run for your life 
          Db 
If you’re low low low yea you know you gotta go 
       Ab 
to the high high high of the beautiful life 
Ebm                   Gb 
Hey, you wish you had died 
              Db 
You’ll be the weakest of the bravest 

The numbers on the pages 
Ab 
All locked up just like lions in the cages 


Ebm Gb Db Ab 

verse 3 
Ebm 
I got my rally on race you to the towns end 
Gb 
I had my eye on you but I lost you in the last spin 
Db 
I know you’re faster, I heard your laughter 
Ab 
You’re only happy when it’s happy every after 

verse 4 
Ebm 
I saw them chasing, saw them hunting you down 
    Gb 
You sounded like a victim like a ghost in the crowd 
    Db 
You love living dangerous, being famous 
       Ab 
Take a look at the crowd it’s not love on their faces 

Pre-Chorus 
             B 
Cause if you don’t try nothing ever changes 
      Ebm 
If we don’t try no one ever saves us 
      Db 
If we don’t try we’re the weakest of the bravest 

The numbers on the pages 

We’re lions in our cages 
      B

Bridge 
                     Gb                           Db 
No life grows in the garden where a young soul is starving 
                              Ab                          Ebm 
Where the rains’ cold and the wind blows and hell is home tonight 
                                          Gb                                  Db 
But then you’re swimming in the rivers of gold and your skin gets used to the cold 
                                 Ab            Gb 
If your heart can’t learn to let go yea you’re never gonna find love 

Double Chorus 
Ebm               Gb

If you’re low low low yea you know you gotta go 
       Ab 
to the high high high of the beautiful life 
Ebm                   Gb 
Hey, you wish you had died
