Walls Of Red Wing chords by Bob Dylan
Guitar chords with lyrics
Verse 1:
G
Oh, the age of the inmates
C G
I remember quite freely
No younger than twelve,
D
No older 'n seventeen
G
Thrown in like bandits
C G
And cast off like criminals,
C G
Inside the walls
D G
on the grounds of Red Wing
Verse 2: G From the dirty old mess hall C G You march to the brick wall Too weary to talk D And too tired to sing G Oh, it's all afternoon C G You remember your home town C G Inside the walls, D G The walls of Red Wing Verse 3: G Oh, the gates are cast iron C G And the walls are barbed wire Stay far from the fence D With the 'lectricity stings G And it's keep down your head C G And stay in your number C G Inside the walls D G The walls of Red Wing Verse 4: G Oh, it's fare thee well C G To the deep hollow dungeon Farewell to the boardwalk D That takes you to the screen G And farewell to the minutes C G They threaten you with it C G Inside the walls, D G The walls of Red Wing Verse 5: G It's many a guard C G That stands around smilin' Holdin' his club D Like he was a king G Hopin' to get you C G Behind a wood pilin' C G Inside the walls, D G The walls of Red Wing Verse 6: G The night aimed shadows C G Through the crossbar windows And the wind punched hard D To make the wall-siding sing G It's many a night C G I pretended to be a-sleepin' C G Inside the walls C G The walls of Red Wing Verse 7: G As the rain rattled heavy C G On the bunk-house shingles And the sounds in the night D They made my ears ring G 'Til the keys of the guards C G Clicked the tune of the morning C G Inside the walls D G The walls of Red Wing Verse 8: G Oh, some of us'll end up C G In St. Cloud Prison And some of us'll wind up D To be lawyers and things G And some of us'll stand up C G To meet you on your crossroads C G From inside the walls, D G The walls of Red Wing
