Em              C                   G
Wake me from my sleep, a cautionary tale

           A                Em
Walk in infancy, a way to derail

               C                      G
I wanted to be free and I wanted only you

                      A
The walls are falling down

    Cmaj7        G/B   Am
And somebody says, "Ah give a little love

                        Em
Give a little love, but take your time"

    Cmaj7        G/B   Am
Somebody says, "Yes, give a little love
b Give a little love, but take your time" [Chorus]
Em
A private life, well come on now

         C                             G
I said, "Livin' gets to be just like a rat race, rat race"

        A                          Em
So come on, I'm-a-read between the lines

                                        C
Fierce struggler, a natural one a tough job

                       G
Gets to be just like a rat race, rat race

        A                        Em  C Am
So come on, I'm a locked up in myself
[Verse 2]
Em             C
Check before rising

                G
Check before we work

                 A
A childproof the scene

                  Em
No screams can be heard

                    C
The roof is caving in

                          G
And the space between our hearts

                      A
The walls are falling down

    Cmaj7        G/B   Am
And somebody says, "Ah give a little love

                        Em
Give a little love, but take your time"

    Cmaj7        G/B   Am
Somebody says, "Yes, give a little love
b Give a little love, but take your time" [Chorus 2]
Em
A private life, well come on now

         C                             G
I said, "Livin' gets to be just like a rat race, rat race"

        A                          Em
So come on, I'm-a-read between the lines

                                        C
Fierce struggler, a natural one a tough job

                       G
Gets to be just like a rat race, rat race

        A                        Em
So come on, I'm a locked up in myself

So come on, I'm-a-read between the lines

                                        C
Fierce struggler, a natural one a tough job

                       G
Gets to be just like a rat race, rat race

        A                        Em
So come on, I'm a locked up in myself

Em
A private life, well come on now

         C                             G

        A                          Em
So come on, I'm-a-read between the lines

                                        C
Fierce struggler, a natural one a tough job

                       G
Gets to be just like a rat race, rat race

        A                        Em
So come on, I'm a locked up in myself

                    Em
I'ma locked up in myself I'ma locked up in myself
