Verse 1
=======
They're trying hard to put me in my place
And that is why I've gotta keep runnin'
The future's mine and it's no disgrace
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
=========
D'you feel a little down today
Bet you ain't got much to say
But you're gonna miss me when I'm not there
You know I don't care

you might try alternating between
a G and a G/F# or a G5 and a G5/F#
