[Bb] [F] out on the runway, and the timeless flights are gone.
I'm a year ahead of [Eb] myself [Dm] these days, [D] and I'm loaded more than [F] strong.
[Bb] [F] City spread like cannon fire, and again I'm nervous today.
I cut the ties and [Eb] the [Dm] bonds, the horse goes and [F] fades.
And [Bb] I won't break, and I won't bend, but someday soon we'll [F] sail away
[C] to innocence and the fit [F] I am.
And [Eb] I [Bb] won't break, and I won't bend, but the last step we [F] ever take
we're gonna [C] get back to simple life [Dm]
[F] again.
[Eb] [Bb]

[Eb] [Bb]
[F] Break out on this blindfold, I'm gonna take you from this place
till we're free [Eb] from this [Dm] bullet chain still haunt behind [F] the gate.
I said, it's [Bb] like heaven's steel [F] on a shallow cruel rock.
You're one crowd [Eb] after the [Dm] other, you never have to [F] stop.
And [Bb] I won't break, and I won't bend, but someday soon we'll [F] sail away
to [C] innocence and the fit I [F] am.
And I [Bb] won't break, and I won't bend, but the last step we [F] ever take
we're gonna [C] get back to simple life [F] again.

Someday soon [F] we'll sail away to [C] innocence and the fit I [F] am.
And I [Bb] won't break, and I won't bend, but the last
[F] step we [C] ever take
we're gonna get back to simple life [F] again.
[Bb] And I won't break, someday soon we'll [F] sail away to [C] innocence and the fit I [F] am.
[Bb] And I won't break, and I won't bend, but the last step we [F] ever take
we're gonna [C] get back to simple life [F] again.
