Well I'm Goin' to a place where the tough guys go, and come out even tougher.
          G                 D                  Em             D    C
A place where a man don't show his feelings, a place where a man don't cry.

I'll Return.
          G                  D                  Em       D
Did they really think that this time it'd work? You knew all along it
C
wouldn't!

G       D                     Em        D        C
Oh, I'm prison bound, I did a crime one too many times.
G                                     D                          Em
It's on the outskirts of town, by the railroad tracks, where the country
D    C
moon shines.
G       D                     Em        D            C
Oh, I'm prison bound, tell my girl I'll be back one day.
G       D                     Em        D        C
Oh, I'm prison bound, I may never know any other, any other way.
G          D       Em     D      C
any other way.

Verso 2

         G                         D                          Em
Well they take away my freedom of expression and action, but Johnny says I
D        C
walk the line.
         G                         D                  Em       D         C
With three hots and a cot, and allot of talk that locks up concrete and steel
         G                                D
Well it's cold and it's clammy, and it's colder than a pimp's heart, but I've
Em    D     C
gotta do my time.
         G                         D                               Em
There's a lesson to be learned here, but what a price to pay, you know, I may
D      C
never learn.
