Tuning: EADGBE Verse 1: A Right here, right now A I put the offer out A I don't want to chase you down N.C. I know you see it A You run with me A And I can cut you free A Out of the treachery and N.C. Walls you keep in A C So trade that typical for something colorful G And if it's crazy, live a little crazy A C You can play it sensible, a king of conventional G Or you can risk it all and see
Chorus: A F Don't you wanna get away from the same old part you gotta play C 'Cause I got what you need C G So come with me and take the ride G It'll take you to the other side A 'Cause you can do like you do F Or you can do like me C G Stay in the cage, or you'll finally take the key A F Oh, damn! Suddenly you're free to fly C G It'll take you to the other side Verse 2: A Okay, my friend, you want to cut me in A Well I hate to tell you, but it N.C. Just won't happen A So thanks, but no A I think I'm good to go A 'Cause I quite enjoy the life N.C. You say I'm trapped in A C Now I admire you, and that whole show you do G You're onto something, really it's something A C But I live among the swells, and we don't pick up peanut shells G I'll have to leave that up to you Chorus: A F Don't you know that I'm okay with this uptown part I get to play C G 'Cause I got what I need and I don't want to take the ride G I don't need to see the other side A So go and do like you do F I'm good to do like me C G Ain't in a cage, so I don't need to take the key A F Oh, damn! Can't you see I'm doing fine C G I don't need to see the other side Verse 3: (Hugh) A Now is this really how you like to spend your days? A Whiskey and misery, and parties and plays (Zac) C If I were mixed up with you, I'd be the talk of the town C Disgraced and disowned, another one of the clowns (Hugh) A But you would finally live a little, finally laugh a little A Just let me give you the freedom to dream and it'll A Wake you up and cure your aching C Take your walls and start 'em breaking C Now that's a deal that seems worth taking Cadd4 But I guess I'll leave that up to you Bridge: (Zac) A G Well it's intriguing, but to go would cost me greatly A G So what percentage of the show would I be taking? (Hugh) C G Fair enough, you'd want a piece of all the action C G I'd give you seven, we could shake and make it happen (Zac) A G I wasn't born this morning, eighteen would be just fine (Hugh) C G Why not just go ahead and ask for nickels on the dime (Zac) A Fifteen (Hugh) C I'd do eight (Zac) A Twelve (Hugh) C Maybe nine (Zac) N.C. Ten Chorus: A F Don't you wanna get away to a whole new part you're gonna play C G 'Cause I got what you need, so come with me and take the ride G To the other side A So if you do like I do F So if you do like me C G Forget the cage, 'cause we know how to make the key A F Oh, damn! Suddenly we're free to fly C G We're going to the other side A So if you do like I do (To the other side) F So if you do like me (We're going to the other side) C A 'Cause if we do we're going to the other side C We're going to the other...
