I'll Break Out Again Tonight       Merle Haggard


Verse 1:
C
Slowly the long day turns to night
C                                    G
And soon they'll turn out the prison lights
G
But in my cell I'm making plans
G                      C
To be with you at home again

Chorus:
C                                 G
These walls and bars can't hold a dreamin' man
G                           F      C
So I'll be home to tuck the babies in
C                                 G
They can chain my body but not my mind
G                          C
And I'll break out again tonight

Solo:
C G C

Verse 2:
C
The warden thinks I'm in for life
C                                    G
'Cause all he's ever seen me wear is stripes
G
He don't know 'bout my blue suit and my tie
G                                  C    
That I wear when I'm with you each night

Chorus:
C                                 G
These walls and bars can't hold a dreamin' man
G                           F      C
So I'll be home to tuck the babies in
C                                 G
They can chain my body but not my mind
G                          C
And I'll break out again tonight
C   G                      C
