Вступление
[Intro]
Am G F/C
[Verse 1]
Am
I got out last Christmas,
G
After serving all my time,
F/C G
To a world that won't forgive me, though I've long paid for my crimes,
Am G
The prison guards were laughing, as they opened up that gate,
F/C G
There was no-one there to meet me, no reason to go straight,
F/C C/G
And its hard to swing a hammer, when all you've known is a gun,
G G
And you like that easy money, cause it buys you so much fun,
Am G
I used to know this girl called trouble, we used to shoot a little bit of coke,
F/C G
But you know those mixed up orphan girls, can never take a joke
[Verse 2]
Am G
She was always milk and honey, someone to treat her good,
F/C G
I was just a junkie, saving up to be a hood
F/C C/G
Cause money buys you freedom, and good drugs will get you friends,
G Am
May the road rise up to meet you, may your party, may your party never end
G - F/C G Am
May it never end
[Verse 4]
Am G
I kinda hoped shed come and meet me, for I took all the blame
F/C G
But I hear that she's found Jesus, I hope shes born again
Am G
For the devil brings the bottle, and the Good Lord feels the pain,
F/C G
And guides you through these wicked streets, back to his arms again
F/C C/G
For life is over-rated, and death is just a lie,
G Am G F/C
Jesus says he loves her, but so do I, so do I - I - I
Am G F/C
So do I - I - I
[Verse 5]
Am G
And down below the mission, where the lights never go out,
F/C G
I heard somebody whisper, and it sounded like your voice,
Am
You said you'd love me till you died,
F/C Am
My little bird, don't you cry,
F/C Am
We'll sing a Jailbird's lullaby
G C/G
We'll sing a Jailbird's lullaby
