[Ab] [Bb] And I was thinking about you guys yesterday.
I've been here three [F] times before and I
[Abm] Think I understand a little bit how [Ab] you feel about some things none [G] of my business
How you feel about some other [Db] things?
I don't [G] give a damn how you feel about some [Bb] of the things but anyway, I
[Ab] Tried [Eb] to put myself in your place and I believe this is the way
That I would [F] feel about San Quentin
[Bb] [F]
[Bb] [F] [Bb] [F] [Bb] [F]
[Bb] San Quentin you've been [F] living [Bb] hell to me
You've [Fm] blistered me [Eb] since [Bb] 1963
[Eb] I've seen them come and go and I've seen [Bb] them die
And long ago [F] I stopped asking [Bb] why
San Quentin I [F] hate every inch [Bb] of you
You cut [F] me and you [Ebm] scarred me through [Bb] and through
And [Eb] I'll walk out a wiser weaker [Bb] man
Mr.
Congressman, [F] you can't [Bb] understand

[Bb] [F] [Bb] [F] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
[F] [Bb] [F] [Bb] [F]
[Bb] San Quentin what [F] good do you think you [Bb] do?
Do you [F] think I'll [Eb] be different when [Bb] you're through?
[Eb] You bend my heart and mind and you warped [Bb] my soul
Your stone walls [F] turn my blood a little [Bb] cold
San Quentin [Eb] may you rot and [Bb] burn in hell
May your [F] walls fall and may [Fm] I live to tell
[F]
[Bb] May all the world forget [Eb] you ever stood
[Bb] And may all the world [F] regret you did [Bb] no good
[F] [Bb] San Quentin I [F] hate every [Bb] inch of [F] you
