Verse 1:
EmCG
I was born saved in heaven
EmCG
It was nothing like the promised land
EmCG
Raised in a good Christian house
DC
Underneath a good Christian hand
EmCG
I was schooled down and dirty
EmCG
Signed a note back to town
EmCG
It was there that the workers slaved all week
DC
Waiting for payday to come around
Chorus:
EmG
Break out, come on if you're coming
CG
Cause baby I just can't stay
EmG
I want to take out the walls of this joint
DC
I want to blow this town away
Verse 3:
EmCG
Now I ain't into fast livin'
EmCG
I ain't into dying young
EmCG
And I ain't looking to be forgiven
DC
For any of the stupid things that I've done
EmCG
For the ones who once had a notion
EmCGA notion it was good to be alive
EmCG
Feel the spark, the rush of emotion
DC
I want to break out baby tonight
Chorus:
EmCG
I want to dream, that I got a place
EmCG
I want to scream in somebody's face
EmCG
Make it seem, get out of this muddy race
DC
All night long
Bridge:
BmEm
Well all little kings lose their thrones tonight
AmD
All you little pretty things better learn to sleep alone tonight
Am
It was down in the cool dirty living
With the man with the master plan
Em
Some girl who can beg forgiveness
And a ticket to the promised land
C
Down where they'll tear your guts out
D
Making out what you're all about
C
And making while we were blasting like a Motor
D
I want out I want out I want out
Verse 4:
EmCG
Want out to the outside
EmCG
Well I'm a small fool
EmCG
I want to shout I'm bound for nothing
DC
I want to shout about something too
EmCG
For the ones who once had a notion
EmCG
It ain't no sin to be glad you're alive
EmCG
I feel the heat, the rush of devotion
DC
I want to tear out baby tonight

EmCG
I wanna do what ain't ever been done
EmCG
I wanna win what ain't ever been won
EmCG
I wanna lose blow it all away
EmCG
I wanna lose what I've always won
EmCG
I wanna know that I got a place
EmCG
I wanna go where I can see your face
EmCG
I wanna rock the roof off this place
D
I want you to know
C
I wanna live
