[C#] [B]
[F#]
This cell is getting colder, out the windows, what [B] a cold.
[C#] Cocaine was a doctor, [B] that's got me sitting in this [F#] waiting room.
It's the smell of weed and whiskey, they let you know you [B] got the blues.
[C#] I'm calling on select [E] now, [B] just hear what they [F#] do.

[C#] I'm calling on select [E] now, [B] just hear what they [F#] do.
They _ _ _ _ said time for your money, _ one day you'll [B] have the _ _ [F#] juice. _
Now [C#] I'm sitting behind these castle [B] walls, singing in [F#] jailhouse blues.

Now [C#] I'm sitting behind these castle [B] _ walls, singing in [F#] jailhouse blues.
_ _ _ I spent some time on the run with my guitar and a Dixie.
Trying to sing my way across the world so everyone can hear [B] me.
Got my thumb up in the air, hoping someone stops to get me.
[F#] Made it all the way to Texas, trying to get to Mississippi.
[C#] Yeah, I travel like a hippie, I set out on a mission.
[B] I clicked up with Hitman, we had the same vision.
[F#] Hoping someone gonna listen, ain't got time to lose.
I just like to rap a little bit, my brother sang the blues.
To Buffalo to Memphis, _ to Fairfax to [B] Birmingham.
_ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
[C#] I walked the streets of New [B] Orleans, I took the bus back to [F#] Alabama.
They _ _ _ _ said time for your money, _ one day [B] you'll have the juice.
