Judy Collins - Pacing The Cage
CAPO: 4th Fret
[Intro]
G   C   G   C  Am7  G
[Verse 1]
                   C        G
Sunset is an angel weeping
                     C      D  G
Holding out a bloody sword
                          C       G
No matter how I squint, I cannot
                            C
Make out what it's pointing toward
                            D                Em
Sometimes you feel like you lived too long
          D             Em     C  Cmaj7
Days drip slowly on the page
                              C      D  D7  G
You catch yourself pacing the cage
[Verse 2]
                        C           G
I've proven who I am so many times
                          C     D  G
The magnetic strip's worn thin
                    C             G
And each time I was someone else
                       C
And everyone was taken in
                       D        Em
Powers chatter in high places
               D              Em     C
Stir up eddies in the dust of rage
    Cmaj7            C      D  D7  G
Set me to pacing the cage
[Verse 3]
                          C       G
I never knew what you all wanted
                   C      D  G
So I gave you everything
                 C        G
All that I could pillage
                            C
All the spells that I could sing
                          D         Em
It's as if the thing were written
             D             Em    C
In the constitution of the age
          Cmaj7                           C      D  D7
Sooner or later you'll wind up pacing the cage
[Instrumental]
G   C   G   C   G   C   G   C   G
[Verse 4]
                            C              G
Sometimes the best map will not guide you
                               C     D  G
You can't see what's round the bend
                                     C        D  G
Sometimes the road leads through dark places
                               C
Sometimes the darkness is your friend
                      D                  Em
Today these eyes scan bleached out land
                      D        Em     C   Cmaj7
For the coming of the outbound stage
           C      Em   C   G
Pacing the cage
           C
Pacing the cage
