Prison Blues Uke tab by Soja

Am                           C
These prison blues a standard issue, Even when our shirts ain't blue
F
We've got shake downs on a daily shanks and ropes she snitches too .
Am                                    C
Those bars lockin' down a cell block, Warden's yellin' down the hall
F
Was you gonna make my prison thicker? Higher, sharper wall?

Dm                          F
I lift that hammer, hammer's heavy , and let that fall upon the stone,
C                                   G
And let that shake these chains that bind me, and build these walls I call my home
Dm                              F
I've got scars that poorly mended, and I don't seem to fit no more
C                               G
Yet I wake myself each morning, just prepare for what's in store


Am                             C
So tonight it's cold cold as bullets, Keys walk up and down my tear ,
F
Tell myself the end is coming soon, To chase away the fear,
Am                              C
That same fear that's got me drinkin' and put these tracks all down my arm
F
That same fear's been inside me, ever since I was born

Dm                          F
I lift that hammer, hammer's heavy , and let that fall upon the stone,
C                                   G
And let that shake these chains that bind me, and build these walls I call my home
Dm                              F
I've got scars that poorly mended, and I don't seem to fit no more
C                               G
Yet I wake myself each morning, just prepare for what's in store...for me



Freedom's just a distant memory
I lose more and more each day
Can't forgive the man inside me
My tranquility is gone
Every day's like every other (x3)
Every day's like..let me out of here
Let me out of here
Let me out of here now
Ive run my rout in here
They knocked me down in here
Let me out of here x3
Let me breath let me go now you want, you said so
Let me out of here
Just let me go far away
