INTRO:
D5  [xx023x]


VERSE:
D5
Everywhere I turn, no matter where I look
The systems in control, it's all ran by the book
I've got to get away so I can clear my mind,
          C       D5
Xscape is what I need,
          C        D5
Away from electric eyes

D5
No matter where I am, I see my face around
They then ask on my name, and push from town to town
Don't have a place to run, but there's no need to hide,
             C       D5
I've got to, find a place,
           C      D5
So I won't hide away


CHORUS:
D5      C                      G                   D5
Xscape, got to get away from a system lose in the world today
D5           C                           G                D5
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships that's gone away
D5          C                      G                    D5
Xscape, the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this man
D5        C                       G            D5
Xscape, I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me


BRIDGE (talking):
Sometimes I feel like
I've gotta get away


VERSE:
D5
I tried to share my life with someone I could love
But games and money is all she ever thought of
How could that be my fault when she gambled and lost?
             C      D5
I'm tired of silly games,
             C       D5
It's time to make a change

D5
Why is it I can't do whatever I want to?
Went in my personal life and I don't live for you
So don't you try to tell me what is right for me
          C            D5 
You be concerned about you,
          C          D5
I can do what I want to
