Verse 1:
G                        D7              G
San Quentin, you've been livin' hell to me.
G                       C               G
You've goaded me since nineteen sixty three
G     C                                      G
I've seen 'em come and go and I've seen 'em die
 G               D7            G
And long ago I stopped askin' why


Verse 2:
G                  D7                   G
San Quentin, what good do you think you do?
G                     C                     G
Do you think I'll be different when you're through?
G    C                                      G
You bend my heart and mind and you may my soul;
G                        D7               G
Your stone walls turn my blood a little cold

Verse 3:
G                    D7               G
San Quentin, may you rot and burn in hell.
G                                          D7
May your walls fall down and may I live to tell.
D7   G                            C
May all the world forget you ever stood.
C    G                    D7               G
And the whole the world regret you did no good.
G                        D7              G
San Quentin, you've been livin' hell to me.
