Been living in the city too long now
E B7 EEven my lungs have started to groan
A E A E AEverybody is singing their own song
Sometimes I want to sing alone
Never been a prima donna
A E B7I never seem to want to be the one to complain
B7 E AEnough's too much and now I'm a goner
Stop the madness scene before it drives me insane
Take me where the sun won't shine on me
A E B7Take me where my conscience won't go now
E ATake me where the sun won't shine - on me
Don't tell me I'm backing out 'cause I don't want to know
C#m A B7 EDon't tell me I'm backing out 'cause I don't want to know
A E A E A E B7 E
A E A E A
Everyone around this town is so angry now
E B7 EBlaring horns and swearing; shaking fists
If everybody in the world was a hit man
E B7 EWe'd wipe each other off each other's hit lists
E A E
Who wants to stand and be counted
A E B7 B7Or anger every man until there's lines on your face, now
I don't want to be the one to start the shouting
C#m A B7 EI'm part of this society and I know my place
A E
Take me where the sun won't shine on me
A E B7Take me where my conscience won't go now
Take me where the sun won't shine - on me
C#m A B7 EDon't tell me I'm backing out 'cause I don't want to know
C#m A B7 EDon't tell me I'm backing out 'cause I don't want to know
A E
Everything around this town is so boring
Well nothing changes; Nothing doesn't stay the same
A ETen years when we had high ideals
We couldn't wait to play the protest game
E A E
But now we have our thing together
Our brand new leathers, three bank accounts
E AWho cares about the starving millions
C#m A B7 EWe're just happy that our cheques don't bounce
A E
Take me where the sun won't shine on me
Take me where my conscience won't go now
E ATake me where the sun won't shine - on me
C#m A B7 EDon't tell me I'm backing out 'cause I don't want to know
Don't tell me I'm backing out 'cause I don't want to ...
C#m A B7 ENo, Don't tell me I'm backing out 'cause I don't want to know
A E A E A E B7 E
