(Harmonica) (Percussion) (Acoustic)
[Verse 1]
|G |Em7 |
. Lost limbs and loved ones . left on the dance floor
|D |C/G G |
. But when the smoke cleared, I only saw you
|G |Em7 |
. Twirl past the carnage and casualties of high school
|D |C/G G |
. Dump out the punchbowl, these days are almost through
[Pre-chorus]
|C |Em
Won't you take a chance and come with me?
|D |G |
Skip out before the last dance and break free?

Summer's meant for open roads
|D |Em | Em |
Let's find out where this highway goes
[Chorus]

Close your eyes, Nikkia, and you'll see

Close your eyes, Nikkia, and you're free

Free-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee .... free-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee ....
[Verse 2]
|G |Em7 |
. Spotlight upon wolves dancing with their prey
|D |C/G G |
. Not you, my renegade, they'll eat you on the way
|G |Em7 |
. Call down your ninjas waiting in the wings
|D |C/G G |
. Storm the castle walls and coming queens and kings
