[Intro]
C#  G#  A#m  G#  F#  6x


[Verse]
         C#                          G#
Well I'm Goin' to a place where the tough guys go,
    A#m       G#    F#
and come out even tougher.
  C#                       G#
A place where a man don't show his feelings,
  A#m                G#     F#
a place where a man don't cry.
          C#                               G#
Well they say I'm being punished and they say
                       A#m             G#     F#
I can be reformed, but someday I'll return.
         C#                 G#
Did they really think that this time it'd work?
    A#m                G#      F#
You knew all along it wouldn't!


[Chorus]
C#       G#
Oh, I'm prison bound,
        A#m        G#        F#
I did a crime one too many times.
            C#
It's on the outskirts of town,
       G#
by the railroad tracks,
          A#m      G#    F#
where the country moon shines.
C#       G#
Oh, I'm prison bound,
        A#m           G#        F#
tell my girl I'll be back one day.
C#       G#                   A#m         G#         F#
Oh, I'm prison bound, I may never know any other,
          C#   G#  A#m  G#  F#
any other way,
          C#   G#  A#m  G#  F#
any other way.


[Verse]
          C#                         G#
Well they take away my freedom of expression
                A#m            G#        F#
and action, but Johnny says I walk the line.
     C#                           G#
With three hots and a cot, and allot of talk
     A#m       G#             F#
that locks up concrete and steel
          C#                              G#
Well it's cold and it's clammy, and it's colder
                              A#m    G#     F#
than a pimp's heart, but I've gotta do my time.
          C#
There's a lesson to be learned here,
    G#                        A#m          G#      F#
but what a price to pay, you know, I may never learn


[Chorus]
C#       G#
Oh, I'm prison bound,
        A#m        G#        F#
I did a crime one too many times.
            C#
It's on the outskirts of town,
       G#
by the railroad tracks,
          A#m      G#    F#
where the country moon shines.
C#       G#
Oh, I'm prison bound,
        A#m           G#        F#
tell my girl I'll be back one day.
C#       G#                   A#m         G#         F#
Oh, I'm prison bound, I may never know any other,
          C#   G#  A#m  G#  F#
any other way,
          C#   G#  A#m  G#  F#
any other way.

where the country moon shines.

tell my girl I'll be back one day.
C#       G#                   A#m         G#         F#
Oh, I'm prison bound, I may never know any other,
          C#   G#  A#m  G#  F#
any other way,
          C#   G#  A#m  G#  F#
any other way.
