Frankland Prison Blues Chords
Really enjoying Onsind currently. Have fun! PR
D# G G#
When I see a prison, I see a vested interest in recidivism;
D# G G#
the righteous and pure on a moral mission, an awful draconian place
D# G G#
Will nobody listen? Can we please move beyond this simplistic vision?
D# G G#
Of ‘intrinsically bad natured citizens’ and the myth that it’s keeping us safe.
When I see a prison I see an inconsistency,
I see differential treatment, I see widespread inequality
I see a failing system that is grinning in defeat,
I see a cycle that nobody’s trying to break, a pattern that’s built to repeat,

They say “when you open up a school, you close a prison door”
Cm F G#
Well we keep underfunding education and locking up the poor
D# G#
And I’m not sure where this is heading, But I know it isn’t great,
Cm F G#
we turned our heads away and they built a prison state.

a prison state
D# G# Cm
“Take me, take me anywhere, I never really cared about this freedom,
F G#
It was never meant for me
D# G# Cm
Lead me, lead me to my cell, I deserve to be in hell, there’s your solution,
F G# F G# D#
you should lock me up and throw away the key, Eternally. Imprison me.”
