Dm* (000765)
C* (000553)
[Verse]
Dm* C* Am G
If you need somebody, call my name
If you want someone, you can do the same
If you want to keep something precious
You got to lock it up and throw away the key
If you want to hold onto your possession
Don't even think about me
[Chorus] x2
Bm7-Bm
If you love somebody
G7-G
If you love someone
Bm7-Bm
If you love somebody
G7-G Am
If you love someone
Dm* C* Am G
set them free
If it's a mirror you want, just look into my eyes
Or a whipping boy, someone to despise
Or a prisoner in the dark
Tied up in chains you just can't see
Or a beast in a gilded cage
That's all some people ever want to be
[Bridge]
F4 F C
You can't control an independent heart
F4 F C
Can't tear the one you love apart
Gm7 F4 F
Forever conditioned to believe that we can't live
C C7
We can't live here and be happy with less
Gm7 F4 F
So many riches, so many souls
C C7
Everything we see we want to possess
[Verse]
Dm* C* Am G
If you need somebody, call my name
If you want someone, you can do the same
If you want to keep something precious
You got to lock it up and throw away the key
If you want to hold onto your possession
Don't even think about me
[Chorus]
Bm7-Bm
If you love somebody
G7-G
If you love someone
Bm7-Bm
If you love somebody
G7-G Am
If you love someone
Dm* C* Am G
set them free
If it's a mirror you want, just look into my eyes
Or a whipping boy, someone to despise
Or a prisoner in the dark
Tied up in chains you just can't see
Or a beast in a gilded cage
That's all some people ever want to be
