San Quentin, you've been living hell to me. _
You've [Eb] blistered me since [Bb] 1963. _ _
[Eb] I've seen them come and go and I've seen them [Bb] die. _
And long ago I stopped asking why. _
San Quentin, I hate every inch of you. _
_ _ _ _ You cut me and [F] you scarred me [Bb] through and through.
_ [Ebm] And I'll walk out a [Gm] wiser, weaker [Bb] man.
_ [F] Mr.
Congressman, you can't [Bb] understand.

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