Cave In

(G)(A)Please take a long hard (G)look through your (D)textbook,

'cause I'm (F#m)hist'ry.

When (G)I strap my helmet (A)on,

I'll be long gone, (D)'cause I've been dying to leave.

Yeah, (G)(A)I'll ride the range and (G)hide all my loose change (D)in my (F#m)bedroll,

'cause (G)(A)riding a dirtbike down a turnpike (D)always takes its toll on me.

(Em9)I've had just (G)about enough of quote,

"diamonds in the rough," because my backbone is paper (A)thin.

Get me out of this cavern or I'll cave (Em)in,

or I'll cave in, or I'll cave (Bm)in.

And if the bombs go (A)off,

the sun will still be (Em7)shining,

(G)because I've heard it said that ev'ry mushroom (A)cloud has a silver (G)lin Though I'm always (A)undermining too deep to know.

(G)(A)Swallow a drop of (G)gravel and blacktop,

(D)'cause the road tastes like (F#m)wintergreen.

The (G)wind and the rain smell (A)of (G)oil and octane (D)mixed with stale gasoline.

I'll (G)soak up the sound, try (A)to (G)sleep on the wet ground,

(D)I'll get ten minutes (F#m)give or take,

'cause I (G)(A)just don't forsee (G)myself getting drowsy (D)when cold integrity keeps me wide awake,

awake, (Bm)(A)awake, (F#m)awake, (G)(D)awake, awake, (Bm)(A)(G)awake,

(F#m)awake.

(D)Get me out of (Bm)this cavern (F#m)or I'll (G)cave (D)in,

cave in, (Bm)cave (A)in, (F#m)cave in,

(G)cave (D)in, cave in, (Bm)cave (A)(G)in,

(F#m)cave in.

(D)Get me out of (Bm)this cavern (F#m)or I'll (G)cave in.

(A)I'll (D)keep my helmet on just in case my (Bm)head caves in.

'Cause if my thoughts collapse or my framework snaps it'll (G)make a mess (A)like you wouldn't believe.

Tie my handlebars to the stars so I (Bm)stay on track.

And if my intentions stray, I'll wrench them away,

then I'll (G)take my leave (A)and I won't even look back.

(A)I won't even look back.

(D)Da, da, da, da, da, da,

da, da, da, da.

Da, da, da, da, da, da,

da, da.

Da, da, da, da, da, da,

da, da, da, da.

(Bm)Da, da, da, da, da, da,

(Gsus2)da, da, da, da.
