Mind Is A Prison accords

F Dm Am C

                    F                                   Dm
I don't live in California, I'll inform you, that's not where I reside
           Am                              C
I'm just a tenant, paying rent inside this body and I
        F                                    Dm
Got two windows and those windows, well I'll call them my eyes
         Am                                  C
I'm just going where the wind blows, I don't get to decide

F                           Dm
Sometimes I think too much, yeah, I get so caught up
Am                      C
I'm always stuck in my head
F                      Dm
I wish I could escape, I tried to yesterday
Am                          C
Took all the sheets off my bed

       F                     Dm                      Am    C
Then I tied up my linen with five strips of ribbon I found
           F 
Scaled the side of the building
  Dm                         Am
I ran to the hills till they found me
C                F
And they put me back in my cell
Dm              Am                      C
All by myself, alone with my thoughts again
           F                    Dm                  Am
I guess my mind is a prison and I'm never gonna get out

            F                                  Dm
So they tranquilized me, analyzed me, threw me back in my cage
          Am                        C
Then they tied me to an IV, told me I was insane
      F                     Dm
I'm a prisoner, a visitor inside of my brain
       Am                            C
And no matter what I do, they try to keep me in chains

F                           Dm
Sometimes I think too much, yeah, I get so caught up
Am                      C
I'm always stuck in my head
F                      Dm
I wish I could escape, I tried to yesterday
Am                          C
Took all the sheets off my bed

       F                     Dm                      Am    C
Then I tied up my linen with five strips of ribbon I found
           F
Scaled the side of the building
  Dm                         Am

C                F
And they put me back in my cell
Dm              Am                      C
All by myself, alone with my thoughts again
           F                    Dm                  Am
I guess my mind is a prison and I'm never gonna get out

F                       Dm
Said even if it's true, no matter what I do
Am                 C
I'm never gonna escape
F                        Dm
I won't give up on hope, secure another rope
Am                   C
And try for another day
F                       Dm
Said even if it's true, no matter what I do
Am                C
I'm never gonna escape
F                        Dm
I won't give up on hope, secure another rope
Am                   C
And try for another day

       F                     Dm                      Am    C
Then I tied up my linen with five strips of ribbon I found
           F
Scaled the side of the building
  Dm                         Am
I ran to the hills till they found me
 C               F
And they put me back in my cell
Dm              Am                      C
All by myself, alone with my thoughts again
           F                    Dm                  Am
I guess my mind is a prison and I'm never gonna get out
