[D] [E] [G]
[F#] [G]
[Bm] [F#]
[E] [G]
[Bm] [F#] [Gm]
I love the [G] prisoners serving life sentences, [Bm]
wait for [D] the earth [E] to [G] suddenly [F#] shake, [G] for
the walls [Bm] to somehow suddenly come [F#] crumbling,
[A#m] tumbling, [C#] and for the bars to somehow magically
[Gm] break.
[B] Oh, there's nothing [Bm] wrong [D] with them, [E] that a thousand bucks [G] can't fix, [B] that a [Bm] [D] thousand
arms [E] can't hold [F#] down, [G] and [B] the ground [Bm] there [F#] tattooing the [A#]
stones [A#m] [E] with curses, [G] like cavemen.
[F#] Yo mama was [A#] here.
[A#m] But [G] they wanna run through the air with [D] no barriers or obstacles, [G]
[A] gunmen or guard dogs
or [D] priests, [G] and to rise from the mud and start [D] over and [G] over with the people out [A] dead.
[G] [Bm] If Hans Christian [C#] Andersen [E] could've had [G] it his way with me, [B] then [D] none of this shit would've
[C#] ever [E] gone [D] down [F#m]
[G] in [B] my [Bm] cell.
I'm [F#] tattooing [A#m] myself with [E] mermaids [G] and swallows, [F#] and though I [A#m] do swallow, [G] my mama thinks [B] I'm
grown, [Bm] but I'm [F#] really just [A#m] little [Bm] and so
[G] -
[F#] [Bm]
[D] Someday [E] [Bm] I will [G] remember.
