The Wall

[G]
Well there’s a lot of strange men, 
in cell block ten,
    [G7]             [D]
but the strangest of them all,
[C]                               
was a friend of mine, who spent 
       [Em]         [G]
his time, staring at the wall,
[Em]              [G]
just staring at the wall.


[G]
As he stared at that wall, so strong
 and tall,
       [G7]           [D]
you could hear him softly curse,
[C]                           
Nobody at all ever climbed that 
     [Em]              [G]
wall, but I'm gonna be the first,

[Em]                [G]
yeah I'm gonna be the first.


[G]
Well the warden walked by and said 
son don't try,
  [G7]             [D]
I'd hate to see you fall,
[C]                               
Cause there aint no doubt they're 
                          [Em]  
gonna carry you out, if you ever 
            [G]
touch that wall,
[Em]                 [G]
if you ever touch that wall.


[G]
Well a years gone by since he made 
his try,
 [G7]           [D]
but I can still recall,
[C]                            
how hard he tried and the way he 
       [Em]                  [G]
died, but he never made that wall,
[Em]                [G]
no he never made that wall.


[G]
There’s never been a man ever shook 
this can,
  [G7]             [D]
but I know a man who tried,
[C]                           
the newspapers called it a jail 
      [Em]                   
break plan, but I know it was 
 [G]
suicide,
[Em]         [G]
I know it was suicide.
