Intro: A   E 
verse 1 
            A 
When you’re lost and lonely in the live long night 
Your friend, the moon, has dropped out of site 
     D 
Your thoughts flew back to what once was 
  A 
A one way ticket down a long lost cause 
    C                         B       
The love you thought you once occupied 
    D                   C                  D-E 
Has turned its back and changed its side 
 
A 
Love is locked in a cage today 
Lives in a rage today 
          E 
Wearing a frown 
A 
Love sparkle has flown away 
Lives in a rage today 
           E 
Getting me down 
verse 2 
          A 
Well, the morning papers don’t bring me no news 
Messes me up and makes my mind confused 
        D 
And the man on the radio, he’s no DJ 
     A 
He’s nasty and cheap just like the records he plays 
    C                         B        
The love you thought you once occupied 
    D                 C                 D-E 
Has turned its back, changed its side 
 
A 
Love is locked in a cage today 
Lives in a rage today 
          E 
Wearing a frown 
A 
Love sparkle has flown away 
Lives in a rage today 
           E 
Getting me down 
verse 3 
              A 
Well, they’re building new walls for the lovers at school 
                                                D 
Closing the gates on the, on the romantic fools 
Charging you money to see yourself die 
A 
Don’t take prisoners when you ask them why 
    C                         B       
The love you thought you once occupied 
D                C                 D-E 
Turned its back, changed its side 
Yeah, yeah, yeah 
A 
Love is locked in a cage today 
Lives in a rage today 
          E 
Wearing a frown 
A 
Love sparkle has flown away 
Lives in a rage today 
           E 
Getting me down
