🎸 Intro:

A minorAm  E minorEm  DmDm  A minorAm


🎸 Verse 1:
      A minorAm                     E minorEm
Where the winds of change were blowin', there lived a God-fearing man
    DmDm         G+G       A minorAm
He was turning through his bible when he came up with a plan
  A minorAm              E minorEm
He painted up a sign and held it high above his head
     DmDm       G+G    A minorAm          G/BG/B
Waved it proudly in the air and this is what it read

🎸 Chorus:
 C majorC         DmDm
You can't break the law
      A minorAm
There are reasons for the rules
  DmDm             G+G
I keep things safe here for everyone
A minorAm
The sinners, saints, and fools
   C majorC        DmDm
The poor and huddled masses
     A minorAm
Who are hungry and afraid
     DmDm       G+G
You gotta do it by the book and there'll be
A minorAm
No exceptions made

🎸 Verse 2:
    A minorAm             E minorEm
To the weary, desperate souls who washed up on the sand
       DmDm        G+G       A minorAm
He said, "We hadn't seen your paperwork" and he withdrew his hand
       A minorAm               E minorEm
You know he never felt any safer, all the peace he hoped he'd find
  DmDm          G+G    A minorAm          G/BG/B
And up until the day he died, he never changed his mind

🎸 Chorus:
 C majorC         DmDm
You can't break the law
      A minorAm
There are reasons for the rules
      DmDm           G+G
They gotta keep it safe here for everyone
   A minorAm
You sinners, saints, and fools
C majorC        DmDm
The poor and huddled masses
     A minorAm
Who are hungry and afraid
     DmDm      G+G
You gotta do it by the book or there'll be
A minorAm
No exceptions made

🎸 Verse 3:
    A minorAm                E minorEm
By the time he got to Heaven, it was surrounded by a wall
   DmDm           G+G       A minorAm
The pearly gates were locked up tight, the golden chains and all
         A minorAm              E minorEm
They said, "We cannot let just anyone walk in here anymore
      DmDm      G+G          A minorAm
You didn't do it by the book," and then they pointed to the floor

🎸 Chorus:
 C majorC         DmDm
You can't break the law
      A minorAm
There are reasons for the rules
  DmDm             G+G
I keep things safe here for everyone
   A minorAm
The sinners, saints, and fools
   C majorC        DmDm
The poor and huddled masses
     A minorAm
Who are hungry and afraid
     DmDm       G+G
You gotta do it by the book and there'll be
A minorAm
No exceptions made
