Verse
       G5
My body is a cage
   Eb7M              G5
That keeps me from dancing with the one I love
  Eb7M
My mind holds the key
  (horn)

       G5
My body is a cage
   Eb7M              G
That keeps me from dancing with the one I love
    Eb7M
But my mind holds the key
G5        Bbm
I'm standing on a stage
  G
Of fear and self doubt
    Eb7M
It's a hollow play
      G     Eb7M | G | Eb7M
But they'll clap anyway

     "My mind holds the key"



Gm         Bbm
 My mind holds the key
         G5
I'm living in an age
    Eb7M
That calls darkness light
     G5
Though my language is dead
     Bbm
Still the shapes fill my head

G/B        Bbm
 I'm living in an age
   G
Whose name I don't know
      Dmadd4
Though the fear keeps me moving
Still my heart beats so slow
 (bass drum)
(G.P.)
