INTRO: C F Am G x2

VERSE:
C                F                         Am              
The cuts I often wear; I wish they weren't there
               G                      C                     
I do what I am told; come in from the cold
C                    F                          Am                
The laws they get me down; I want to ditch this town
                   G                      C                  
But when I see you near it all becomes so clear

CHORUS:
F                   Am    G                                   
Sometimes I feel so mild, child
                     C    F   Am              
You make me wanna be wild
G                           C             
Child, you make me wanna be wild

SOLO 1: C F Am G x2

VERSE:
There was a wish I made; To burn before I fade
And go out with a bang; Be a bell that rang
And so it is I feel; It's not so bad to steal the lime light once in a while
Just to make you smile

CHORUS:
'Times I feel so mild, child
You make me wanna be wild
Child, you make me wanna be wild

SOLO 2: C F Am G x2

BRIDGE:
Am                F            C       G                              
There the brother ravagers are at your railings
Am              F           C           G                               
Welcome all the savages and claim their failings
Am                F               C        G                             
This could be the final chance to stop our sinking
Am           F                   C        G                            
Join me in a loving dance, we'll stop our faking 

VERSE:
The fire, the fire; I'm a furnace roarin'
I'm a rocket soarin'; Let me take your hand
Light the light; You are the air that feeds me
You're the road that leads me to the promised land
Don't let your sun set down on me
I need your golden rays

SOLO 3: C F Am G x2

VERSE:
There was a wish I made; To burn before I fade
And go out with a bang; Be a bell that rang
I found it in your face; A very sacred space
I'm gonna light that fuse; Lord I found my muse

CHORUS:
Sometimes I feel so mild, child
You make me wanna be wild
Child, you make me wanna be wild
