Main Riff
You wired me awake and hit me with a hand of broken nails.
You tied my lead and pulled my chain to watch my blood begin to
boil.
Chorus-Keep Main Riff Goin’
But I’m gonna break
I’m gonna break my
I’m gonna break my rusty cage and run.
I’m gonna break.
I’m gonna break my D
I’m gonna break my rusty cage.....
and run.
Use Main Riff Again
To cold to start a fire
I’m burnin’ diesel, burnin’ dinosaur bones
I’ll take the river down the still water and
ride a pack of dogs.
Chorus
Then After the chorus, something very different from the Johnny cash style. The music is cool and I think Johnny’s voice fits in well.
E
When the forest burns along the road.
Like God’s eyes in my headlights,
When the dog’s are looking for their bones,
And it’s rain and ice that hits on your steel shore.
Chorus But instead of using the main riff. Just play the E chord all the way to the very end when he says “Cage” use the D chord.
Then end on E.
