           Am
I'm in the corner of your cage
        E7  
Mascara running down my face
            G   
The door is open but I'll stay
                  D
You think you can keep me

And keep me afraid
               
              Am 
Your twisting screws inside my head
             E7
I won't just lie down and play dead
       G
Take a good look at my face
                  D
You think you can keep me

Am
Scared to fall asleep at night
Am
When you're by my side
             E7
I don't know why
                E7
It doesn't feel right
G
Hide behind your poker face
G
You do it everyday
              D
I know you're lying
            D   
So I fake a smile

F
Ah            E7
'cause in the end (the end)
                             D
I know you'll get (you get), everything you gave

           Am 
I'm in the corner of your cage
        E7 
Mascara running down my face
            G
The door is open, but I stay
                  D
You think you can keep me

And keep me afraid

              Am
Your twisting screws inside my head
             E7
I won't just lie down and play dead
       G 
Take a good look at my face
                  D
You think you can keep me
Am
But I'm not afraid
           E7            G         
Da, da-da, da-da, da-da, da-dum
           D             Am       E7  G  D
Da, da-da, da-da, da-da, da-dum, dum

Am
Better hope and plead and pray
Am
I keep your secret safe
           E7
You better run
                 E7
'cause I got the gun
G
I don't need receipts to show
G
The things that we both know
                 D
'cause I got the scars
                 D
To prove who you are

F
Ah            E7
'cause in the end (the end)
              E7
I know you'll get (you get)
D
Everything you give

           Am
I'm in the corner of your cage
        E7 
Mascara running down my face
            G 
The door is open, but I'll stay
                  D
You think you can keep me

And keep me afraid

              Am
Your twisting screws inside my head
             E7
I won't just lie down and play dead
       G
Take a good look at my face
                  D
You think you can keep me
Am
But I'm not afraid
E7          G            D   
Da, da-da, da-da, da-da, da-dum

Da, da-da, da-da, da-da, da-dum, dum
