[C] [G] [C]
Behind those English [F] prison walls, [C] the innocent and [F] tortured call.
They [D] call for [C] justice and [Am] for peace [G] and a chance to live [F] again.
[C] For in their dark and [F] lonely cell, [C] there's no justice, [F] there's no [C] freedom bell.
For those Irish men and women, [E] [G] they're imprisoned without [C]
[Am] crime.
[G] So flee the people, [C] let them go, you [F] can't hold them [C]
anymore.
But remember too, it [Am] could be me [Em] or [C] you, [G] behind those [C] prison walls.
By the laws of God, it's surely [F] wrong.
For [C] they've suffered [F] now for far too long.
And with no [D] [C] evidence, no [Am] proof of what [G] you say they're [F] guilty of.
[C] But to me it is a [F] crime, a shame.
[C] How you treated them [F] was all a game.
But the howling [C] winds of [Am] justice will [G] cry out to free their [C] names.

[F] You robbed them of their freedom and [Em] you jailed them without crime.
[F] You denied them of their liberty, you [G] stole away their [C]
time.
You stole the precious gift [F] of time.
[C] To me it is [F] the greatest crime.
So you [C] must free the [A] Guildford, for you [D] can't hold them [F] anymore.
Or [C] like the six in [F] Birmingham [C] and the many [F] others jailed and damned.
Release them now [C] and let [Am] them go [G] and justice will be [C] done.
