Stone Walls

Jim Croce

 DAD
             Spent too many years inside this prision
 GDA
             Too many years just for one little fight
 DD7GG7
             He got what was comin and I think I've served enough time
 DAG/D
             I'm goin home tonight
 DA
             That stone looks mighty cold
 BmD7
             And the guard that walks that walk
 GDA
             Is just waitin to get a convict in his sights
 DD7GG7
             But if I can clear the top you can bet I'll never stop
 DAG/D
             Cause I'm goin home tonight

 GG7DD7
Chorus:   Because stone walls do a prision make and iron bars a cage
 DBmA
          Any man that says they don'ts never been inside
 DD7GG7
          Cause in time the bars get closer and at night the walls grow    
tighter
 DAG/D
          Till you feel like there's a shackle around your mind

 DD7GD7
              Now those guards are on my tail, I can hear those sirens wail
 GDA
              But I know that I'll get away and that I'll be alright
 DD7GG7
              Cause I'd rather live on the run, stand free in the mornin sun
 DA7AG/D
              Than to spend another lonely prision night

Chorus:



A A7 Bm D D7 G G/D G7
