This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Bm A G

Verse 1

=======

D Em G

They're trying hard to put me in my place

Bm A G

And that is why I've gotta keep runnin'

D Em G

The future's mine and it's no disgrace

Bm A G

Cos in the end the past means nothing

You tell me I'm free then you tie me down

And from my chains I think it's a pity

What did it cost you to wear my crown

You don't like me why don't you admit it

Pre-chorus

=========

A Em

D'you feel a little down today

G D

Bet you ain't got much to say

A Em

But you're gonna miss me when I'm not there

You know I don't care

NOTE: If you don't think the tabbed part above sounds just right, perhaps

you might try alternating between

a G and a G/F# or a G5 and a G5/F#

Chorus

======

D2 A G

D2 A2 Em G2
