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