🎶 Mind is a prison

tone [G]
Intro: [G#m][Fbm][G][Dm]
==

Verse 1:
I don't live in [G#m]California
I'll inform you, that's not [Fbm]where I reside
I'm just a [G]tenant payin' rent inside this [Dm]body and I...
Got two [G#m]windows
And those windows, well, I [Fbm]call them my eyes
I'm just [G]goin' where the wind blows
I don't [Dm]get to decide

Pre-chorus:
[G#m]Sometimes I think too much
[Fbm]Yeah, I get so caught up
[G]I'm always stuck in my [Dm]head
[G#m]I wish I could escape
[Fbm]I tried to yesterday
[G]Took all the sheets off my [Dm]bed

Chorus:
Then I [G#m]tied up my linen
With [Fbm]five strips of ribbon I [G]found[Dm]
Scaled the [G#m]side of the buildin'
I [Fbm]ran to the hills 'til they [G]found me
[Dm]And they put me [G#m]back in my cell
[Fbm]All by myself
[G]Alone with my thoughts again[Dm]
Guess my [G#m]mind is a prison
And [Fbm]I'm never gonna get [G]out

Verse 2:
So they [G#m]tranquilize me, analyzed me
Threw me [Fbm]back in my cage
Then they [G]tie me to an IV
Told me [Dm]I was insane
I'm a [G#m]prisoner, a visitor
[Fbm]Inside of my brain
And no [G]matter what I do
They try to [Dm]keep me in chains

Pre-chorus:
[G#m]Sometimes I think too much
[Fbm]Yeah, I get so caught up
[G]I'm always stuck in my [Dm]head
[G#m]I wish I could escape
[Fbm]I tried to yesterday
[G]Took all the sheets off my [Dm]bed

Chorus:
Then I [G#m]tied up my linen
With [Fbm]five strips of ribbon I [G]found[Dm]
Scaled the [G#m]side of the buildin'
I [Fbm]ran to the hills 'til they [G]found me
[Dm]And they put me [G#m]back in my cell
[Fbm]All by myself
[G]Alone with my thoughts again[Dm]
Guess my [G#m]mind is a prison
And [Fbm]I'm never gonna get [G]out

Bridge:
[G#m]Said even if it's true
[Fbm]No matter what I do
[G]I'm never gonna escape[Dm]
[G#m]I won't give up on hope
[Fbm]Secure another rope
[G]And try for another day[Dm]
[G#m]Said even if it's true
[Fbm]No matter what I do
[G]I'm never gonna escape[Dm]
[G#m]I won't give up on hope
[Fbm]Secure another rope
[G]And try for another day[Dm]

Chorus:
Then I [G#m]tied up my linen
With [Fbm]five strips of ribbon I [G]found[Dm]
Scaled the [G#m]side of the buildin'

[Dm]And they put me [G#m]back in my cell
[Fbm]All by myself
[G]Alone with my thoughts again[Dm]
Guess my [G#m]mind is a prison
And [Fbm]I'm never gonna get [G]out⠀
