Stone Walls by Jim Croce
Stone Walls
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Verse 1]
D A D
Spent too many years inside this prison
G D A
Too many years just for one little fight
D D7 G G7
He got what was comin' and I think I've served enough time
D A G/D
I'm goin' home tonight
D A
That stone looks mighty cold
Bm D7
And the guard that walks that walk
G D A
Is just waitin' to get a convict in his sights
D D7 G G7
But if I can clear the top you can bet I'll never stop
D A G/D
Cause I'm goin' home tonight
[Chorus]
G G7 D D7
Because stone walls do a prison make and iron bars a cage
D Bm A
Any man that says they don'ts never been inside
D D7 G G7
Cause in time the bars get closer and at night the walls grow tighter
D A G/D
Till you feel like there's a shackle around your mind
[Verse 2]
D D7 G D7
Now those guards are on my tail, I can hear those sirens wail
G D A
But I know that I'll get away and that I'll be alright
D D7 G G7
Cause I'd rather live on the run, stand free in the mornin' sun
D A7 A G/D
Than to spend another lonely prison night
[Chorus]
G G7 D D7
Because stone walls do a prison make and iron bars a cage
D Bm A
Any man that says they don'ts never been inside
D D7 G G7
Cause in time the bars get closer and at night the walls grow tighter
D A G/D
Till you feel like there's a shackle around your mind
