Eight lives count down the days, 
       Am                 Em
that colossal fall from grace
Em            B7          Em
Back to Pentonville to be alone
Em                           Am  
One lonely life on its knees

cursing all he sees
Em                   B7          Em
And praying down the barrel of a gun
