Intro riff
A
Ride…, ride my see-saw,
G A
Take this place on this trip just for me.
A
Ride…, take a free ride,
G A
Take my place, have my seat, it’s for free.
A G D A
I worked like a slave for years,
A G D A
Sweat so hard just to end my fears,
A G D A
Not to end my life a poor man,
G A
But by now, I know I should have run.
A
Run…, run my last race,
G A
Take my place, have this number of mine.
A
Run…, run like a fire,
G A
But don’t you run in, in the lanes, run for time.
A G D A
Left school with a first-class pass,
A G D A
Started work but as second class.
A G D A
School taught one and one is two,
G A
But by now, that answer just ain’t true.
A G D A
My world is spinning around,
A G D A
Everything is lost that I found,
A G D A
People run, come ride with me,
G A
Let’s find another place that’s free…
A
Ride…, ride my see-saw,
G A
Take this place on this trip just for me.
A
Ride…, take a free ride,
G A
Take my place, have my seat, it’s for free.
A
Ride my see-saw.
A G A G A
Ride.., ride…, ride…, my see-saw.
A G A
Ride my see-saw.
A G A
Ride my see-saw.
