[Intro]
Am G F E
[Verse 1]
Am G Oh you, you walk on past D Your lips cut a smile on your face (Your scalding face) Am G To the cage, to the cage D She was a beauty in a cage
[Verse 2]
Am G Too, too high a price D To drink rotting wine from your hands (Your fearful hands)
N.C.
Get me to a doctor's I've been told
F * Someone's back in town, the chips are down G * I just cut and blackout
N.C.
I'm under Japanese influence
Am
And my honour's at stake[Verse 3]
G The weather's grim, ice on the cages F Me, I'm Robin Hood and I puff on my cigarette E Panthers are steaming, stalking, screaming
[Pre-Chorus]
E If you don't stay tonight Am G F I will take that plane tonight Am G F E I've nothing to lose, nothing to gain Am G I'll kiss you in the rain F E Kiss you in the rain (kiss you in the rain) Am G Kiss you in the rain (kiss you in the rain) F E In the rain (In the rain) F * G * Get me to the doctor
[Chorus]
Am G Get me off the streets (get some protection) F E Get me on my feet (get some direction) E Hot air gets me into a blackout Am G F Oh, get me off the streets E Get some protection Am G F E Oh, get me on my feet (wo-ooh!)
[Chorus]
Am While the streets block off G F E Getting some skin exposure to the blackout (get some protection) Am G F E Am G F E Get me on my feet (get some direction, wo-ooh!) Am G F E Oh, get me on my feet Am G F E Get me off the streets (get some protection)
[Outro]
Am G F E (Repeat until fades out)
