Prison Bound by Social Distortion
from album Prison Bound
written by Mike Ness
Chords G D E C
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!
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official SOCIAL DISTORTION tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
