John Gorka - Jailbirds In The Bighouse
CAPO: 1st Fret
INTRO: G Am D C G
Am
They built a prison by the freeway
D
Just to rub it in
It's a gentle reminder
C G
Of the wages of sin
Am
The ones on the inside
D
Are being paid their share
There's a hundred stories
C G
For every man in there
Am
There's marks on the cell wall
D
There's marks on the men
One counts off the time lost
C G C
The other counts 'til the end
CHORUS:
G
Jailbirds in the big house
Am
Jailbirds in the sky
Singing of their innocence
Em D C
They'll sing by and by
G
Jailbirds in the big house
Jailbirds on a spree
Am
Some of them could'a looked like you
Em D G
Some of them used to look like me
Am
Well, Teddy was a bad kid
D
From a bad family tree
He was voted most likely
C G
To commit a felony
Am
And that was just in grade school
D
After that he disappeared
They say he moved, or he dropped out
C G
And he's faded with the years
Am
A red hand in the cookie jar
D
A foot in potter's field
His face was waiting for a number
C G C
His fate was aching to be sealed
CHORUS:
G
Jailbirds in the big house
Am
Jailbirds in the sky
Singing of their innocence
Em D C
They'll sing by and by
G
Jailbirds in the big house
Jailbirds on a spree
Am
Some of them could'a looked like you
Em D G
Some of them used to look like me
Teddy had a girlfriend
Am D
Who gave him a place to stay
But he left with her TV set
C G
And a baby on the way
Am
And if you should run across him
D
He could shorten your life
With the butt of a pistol
C G
Or the edge of a knife
Am
He'll sing a song of the rock pile
Mourning all he had
D
All the luck in all the world
C G C
And most of it was bad
CHORUS:
G
Jailbirds in the big house
Am
Jailbirds in the sky
Singing of their innocence
Em D C
They'll sing by and by
G
Jailbirds in the big house
Jailbirds on a spree
Am
Some of them could'a looked like you
Em D G
Some of them used to look like me
