[Am] [D]
They gave me a suit and a twenty dollar bill [G] when I left the [D] penitentiary
And they swung open wide those thick iron [E] gates and said they had [A] rehabilitated me
[D] But society doesn't feel the same
[G] I've lost my [D] home and my wife
[G] And they say I got no [D] one but myself to blame
[A] Cause I wear these [D] invisible stripes
[G] A twenty dollar bill won't buy me my fill [D] of all the things I wanted all my life
[G] And a brand new prison made three button suit [A] won't hide these invisible [D] stripes
No matter where I go they say there ain't no dough that [G] don't want an ex-con [D] to go around
So I'm broke all the time and they say that [E] I'm
A menace to the [A] decent people in town
[D] A twenty dollar bill is in somebody's tail [G] and the suit doesn't look [D] brand new
It [G] doesn't seem that fate is [D] gonna let me go straight [A] these invisible stripes [D] show through
[G] I'd give my life for a home and a wife [D] and a chance to show I can do right
[G] But I'm hardly hard before they say I'm fired
[A] They've seen these invisible [D] stripes
I dreamed through the years of sweat and tears [G] of how life on the [D] outside would be
And that old prison yard didn't seem so hard [E] when I think of the day I'd [A] be free
[D] I'm finally free but nobody wants me and [G] I'm a-travelin' the road, [D] that's right
I [G] tried to pay my debt but [D] they won't let me forget [A] this suit of invisible [D]
stripes
[G] A twenty dollar bill won't buy me my fill [D] of all the things I've wanted all my life
[G] And a brand new prison made three button suit [A] won't hide these [D] invisible stripes
