Intro
A
Verse
A
I can't take the criticism
D
I'm eaten up with cynicism
F#m Bm E7
All the colors in the prism entering my eyes
D E7 A
Still can't change my mind
A
I'm a stubborn goat getting older
D
A cube of ice getting colder
F#m Bm E7
A frozen heart and frozen shoulders, that is what I've got
D E7 A
A sweetheart I am not
A D
Now I'll soften when it pays the bills
A D
I'll love you in exchange for thrills
A D
Our service calls, withdrawal kills
A D A
I can smell fresh blood from miles away
Chorus
A D E7 A
I can't be locked up this way,
A D E7 A
I can't be locked up this way
A D E7 A
I can't be locked up like this, oh, no,
A D E7 A
I can't be locked up this way
Verse
A
Now I have been their slave but I'm tired of workin'
D
A jackhammer tired of jerking
F#m Bm E7
I'm a booty-shaker tired of twerking, you can laugh all you want
D E7 A
Soon enough, though, I'll be gone
A
I'm a dying fly on the wall
D
I'm a teenage girl who just won't call
F#m Bm E7
I'm a deflated basketball, no needle to be found
D E7 A
And I just want to be round
Bridge
A D
So I can roam, so I can bounce
Bm E7
So I can roll out of this town
Chorus
D E7 A
I can't be locked up like this,
A D E7 A
I can't be locked up like this
A D E7 A
I can't be locked up this way, oh, no,
A D E7 A
I can't be locked up like this
Verse
A
Now I'm the worst ship that was ever built
D
I started sinking soon as the champagne spilled
F#m Bm E7
All the dirty secrets in my quilt, they won't come out in the wash
D E7 A
Somebody help, my gosh
A
I'm a beating heart off the beaten path
D
The god of shame, fear my wrath
F#m Bm E7
Can my filthy soul take a bath in the light of you?
D E7 A
In the light of truth?
D E7 A
In the light of you
Chorus
A D E7 A
No, I can't be locked up like this,
A D E7 A
I can't be locked up like this
A D E7 A
I can't be locked up this way, oh, no,
A D E7 A
I can't be locked up like this
A D E7 A
I can't be locked up like this,
A D E7 A
I can't be locked up like this
A D E7 A
I can't be locked up like this (Oh, no),
A D E7 A
I can't be locked up like this
