Lo  ve    is locked in a cage today
lives in a rage today
wearing a frown

lives in a rage today
getting me down.

Well the morning papers don’t bring me no news, messes me up and makes my mind confused

and the man on the radio he’s no DJ, he’s nasty and cheap just like the records he plays
    C                         B             D                   C                    D E7

Lo  ve    is locked in a cage today
lives in a rage today
wearing a frown

lives in a rage today
getting me down.

Well they’re building high walls round the lovers it's true, closing the gates on the romantic fools
D            D7       D            D7   A          A7                 A        A7
Charging you money to see yourself die, don’t take prisoners when you ask them why
    C                         B             D               C                       D E7

Lo  ve    sparkle has flown away
lives in a rage today
getting me down. (repeat to fade)
