G      F             
Tie me down 
        G              Am 
I'll go wild, I'll go wild 
               F 
You can't hold down

A homeless child, a homeless child 


F                            G      
No man was born to be locked up 
                         Am                    
No man is born to not be free 
F                                                                    
We're here to live, we're here to love

         Em           Dm                               
When the lows get too heavy

I must teach myself to climb

F                            G             
Behind the cloth, behind the paint 
                     Am            
Behind the flesh and bones 
                            G           
Behind the laughter and the pain 
                        Am                    
Behind the eyes lies my soul 

         Em            Dm                               
When the tears get too heavy 
       Em              Dm                              
I must teach myself to cry 
       Am                                                     
Tie me down 
        G             Am                                      
I'll go wild, I'll go wild 
               F                                      
You can't hold down

Oh, there's got to be a way 
                 F      G                         
I'm a hunter for better days 


       Am             
Tie me down 
        G             Am 
I'll go wild, I'll go wild 
               F 
You can't hold down
