Verse:
G
It was a cruel turn of fate
G

I did three bitter years inside
G
A friend of mine who set me up
G                                     C       F C
And he was the one got away with the money
D7
But I swore tonight would be the night
                               G     C    G   C  D7
This place couldn't hold me no longer

Verse:
G
The rain was dancing on the yard
G
The searchlight creeping down the wall
G
The night it was so black outside
G                                      C         F C
I nearly jumped half a block from the rendezvous
D7
But when I landed on the street
                           G
I saw the green light come shining

Chorus:
F C
I'm busted loose, I'm out on the run
F C                                              G
I'm so close, you're right in the sights of my gun
F C
I'm nervous, I'm out of control
F C                                   G
I can't stop the hurricane down in my soul
D7          G
Nobody can hide you
C            G
I'm standing right beside you
D7
Watching everything you do
D7           G
Yeah         Yeah
C            G
Yeah Yeah
D7
Watching everything you do

Verse:
G
I thought that I was strong enough
G
To take the screws at their own game
G
But they've got tricks they keep in store
G                                   C        F C
For anyone dreaming of beating the system
D7
They had me down upon my knees
                       G       C   G   C  D7  G
Soon I was begging for mercy

Verse:
G
My girl she said she'd stick it out
G
She kissed my fingers through the grille
G
She whispered she'd love no-one else
G                                            C          F C
But then she took off with a creep from the south side
D7
The night they passed me down the news
                             G
That's when the fuse started burning

Chorus:
F C
I'm busted loose, I'm out on the run
F C                                              G
I'm so close, you're right in the sights of my gun
F C
I'm nervous, I'm out of control
F C                                   G
I can't stop the hurricane down in my soul
D7          G
Nobody can hide you
C            G
I'm standing right beside you
D7                      G
Watching everything you do
