Chords G D E C
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/social_distortion/prison_bound_crd.html ]
G D
Well, I'm goin' to a place where the tough guys go
E D C
and come out even tougher.
G D
A place where a man don't show his feelings,
E D C
a place where a man don't cry.
G
Well, they say I'm bein' punished
D
and they say I can be reformed
E D C
but some day I'll return.
G D
Did they really think that this time it'd work,
E D C
you knew all along it wouldn't.
Chorus:----
G D
Oh, I'm prison bound
E D C
I did a crime one too many times.
G D
It's on the outskirts of town by the railroad tracks
E D C
where the country moon shines.
Oh, I'm prison bound
tell my girl I'll be back one day.
Oh, I'm prison bound
I may never know any other way.
Well, they've taken away my freedom of expression or action
Johnny says I'll walk the line
with three hots and a cot and a lot of talk
with lock-up concrete and steel.
Well, It's cold and It's clammy
man it's colder than a pimp's heart
but I gotta do my time.
There's a lesson to be learned here but what a price to pay
you know, I may never learn-
Chorus:---
That's It-- Like most Social D it's a simple chord progression,
but a lot of fun to play!
