Merle Haggard

Intro  G    G7   G


                            G7        C              G
I`d like to hold my head up    and be proud of who I am
                                  D    A  D
But they won`t let my secret go untold
  G               G7                   C              G
I paid the debt I owed `em but they`re still not satisfied
                  D              G
Now I`m a branded man out in the cold

                        G7       C               G
When they let me out of prison I held my head up high
                                  D     A  D
Determined I would rise above the shame
       G                 G7        C                  G
But no matter where I`m living the black mark follows me
                   D            G
I`m branded with a number on my name


                    G7             C              G
I`d like to hold my head up and be proud of who I am
                                  D    A  D
But they won`t let my secret go untold
  G               G7                   C              G
I paid the debt I owed `em but they`re still not satisfied
                  D              G      D   G G7 G
Now I`m a branded man out in the cold


G                     G7               C              G
If I live to be a hundred I guess I`ll never clear my name
                                    D     A  D
`Cause everybody knows I`ve been in jail
   G                   G7              C               G
No matter where I`m living I`ve got to tell them where I`ve been
                           D           G
Or they`ll send me back to prison if I fail


                     G7            C              G
I`d like to hold my head up and be proud of who I am
                                  D    A  D
But they won`t let my secret go untold
  G               G7                   C              G
I paid the debt I owed `em but they`re still not satisfied
                  D              G
Now I`m a branded man out in the cold
                  D              G      G7
Now I`m a branded man out in the cold
