"Set Me Free", John Cale
[Intro]
G C G C G C G C
[Verse 1]
G C
There's a carnival lady in a ten gallon hat
G C
She pulls a rabbit out of the hat
G C G C G C G C
And sets it free, she sets it free
G C
There's a pigeon in my chimney and it's powdering up the air
G C
Powdering up the air and making it hard to breathe
G C G C
Gonna set it free, it's free or fried
[Chorus]
D Am
Together again, and again
D Am C G C G C
Free again, and again
[Verse 2]
G C
The lady wants you to dance to the sound of the castanets
G C
You're trying hard to forget
G C G C
What she'd mean to you, if she should set you free
G C
When you walk in the rain up to your ankles in water
G C
Fixated on the vision of the hangman's daughter
G C G C
And what she'd mean to you, when she'd set you free
[Chorus]
D Am
Free again, and again
D Am C G C G C G C G C
Together again, and again
[Verse 3]
G C
You hear a noise in the distance and you see the sun go down
G C
The streets are full of junkies, there's a lot of them about
G C
You feel them getting closer, they're breathing down your neck
G C
You're the only one left, you're the only one left
[Chorus]
G C G C
Who doesn't wanna be free, you don't wanna be free
G C
You never asked to be free again
