Verse 1:
     A minorAm
I've been shaking the cage
    A minorAm         G+G
Not an insect to the flame
   A minorAm                G+G
No I won't let a light stand in my way
   A minorAm
When there's blood on my hands
           G+G
I hope you understand
    A minorAm                G+G
That I won't be afraid to do it all again

Pre-chorus:
DmDm             FF
You're telling me hope is a demon
DmDm
Watch out, watch out
        FF      E MajorE
Cause I won't believe it, nooo

Chorus:
A minorAm          DmDm
You can lock me in a jailhouse
        FF           G+G
Throw away the key and leave me bleeding
A minorAm           DmDm
You can throw me to the fire
            FF
You can drown me in the river

You won't stop me breathing

I'll serve my time, let me live my life
A minorAm          DmDm

I've been chasing a dream

For so long now it seems
   A minorAm      DmDm      FF      G+G
And I won't let it go 'till it's mine to keep
     A minorAm     DmDm
There's a hole in my head
   FF         G+G

I swear that I'll fight for all that's mine
