[Verse 1]
D#
Nothing feels stale
When you’re fresh out of jail
A#
Not even the smog of the city
D#
With the sun in my eyes
D#
And the cars rushing by
D# A# D# G# D#
Even yellow snow looks kind of pretty
D# D# A# D# D# A# D# G# D#
[Verse 2]
D#
Nothing tastes stale
When you’re fresh out of jail
A#
This coffee is heaven in black
D#
When I pour my first cup
D#
All the steam rises up
A# D# G# D#
And I’m glad, so glad to be back
[Chorus 1]
A# D#
Call up Johnny, it’s been too long
A# D# G# D#
Find out if his wheels still turn
A# G#
Then again, I wonder if it’s worth my while
A#
Have I got that time left to burn?
D#
Time left to burn
[Interlude]
D# A# D# D# A# D# G# D#
[Verse 3]
D#
Everything shines like a big neon sign
A#
And the girl down the hall looks so pretty
D#
There’s music in my ears
And music in my mind
A# D# G# D#
The radio is good company
[Chorus 2]
A# D#
Home sweet home, where I belong
A# D# G# D#
Open all the doors because I can
A# D#
The windows need washing but the light streams in
A#
Singing out that I’m free man
D#
I’m free man
A#
I’m free man
G# A#
I’m free man
D#
I’m free man
D# G# A# D# G# D#
[Bridge]
G# Aadd9
Time has come to talk the straight path
D# G# Aadd9 A#add9 G#
Poison all around me, I want to purify
D# Aadd9
No, I haven’t been myself
A#add9 Aadd9
Locked up in a cage
D#
I saw the beast in me
