low to high string 002200 You wired me awake And hit me with a hand of broken nails You tied my lead and pulled my chain To watch my blood begin to boil But I'm gonna break I'm gonna break my I'm gonna break my rusty cage and run But I'm gonna break... ...I'm gonna break my rusty cage and run Too cold to start a fire I'm burning diesel burning dinosaur bones I'll take the river down to still water And ride a pack of dogs But I'm gonna break... But I'm gonna break... Riff during last verses: E|----------------------| B|----------------------| G|----------------------| D|----------------------| A|-2--2-2--2--2-2-------| E|-0--0-3--0--0-3-0-3---| Hits like a Phillips head into my brain It's gonna be too dark to sleep again Cutting my teeth on bars and rusty chains I'm gonna break my rusty cage and run When the forest burns along the road Like God's eyes in my headlights When the dogs are looking for their bones And it's raining icepicks on your steel shore I'm gonna break I'm gonna break my I'm gonna break my rusty cage and run
