ALCATRAZ

C majorC

C majorC         G+G
i stood helpless to the threat
  E minorEm     FF    C majorC
of a heavy lid i'll never lift

C majorC         G+G
and when the gavel hit the desk
E minorEm
metal shut around me
FF      C majorC
marshals at my wrist

C majorC         G+G
led me down the longest hall
E minorEm
down the darkest throat
  FF      C majorC
of the hardest animal

C majorC         G+G
and just listen to the wind
      E minorEm
wailing like the wounded
    FF     C majorC
over the lincoln highway bridge

C majorC         G+G
down in the valley or in the street
      E minorEm
don?t let the ad men fool you
   FF       C majorC
you got everything you need

C majorC         G+G
out in your sheets beside your love
E minorEm
recognize the instant
   FF    C majorC
memorize the pose

A minorAm C majorC G+G FF E minorEm D MajorD
A minorAm C majorC G+G FF E minorEm D MajorD
A minorAm C majorC G+G FF E minorEm D MajorD
A minorAm C majorC

C majorC
despite all the hatred i held for you
C majorC
despite all the violence i could do
G+G      E minorEm   FF   C majorC
just beyond, there is love

C majorC
and when i'm alone with only my thoughts
C majorC
and as you might know, i'm alone a lot
G+G   E minorEm    FF    C majorC
it's the love i'm thinking of

C majorC        G+G
out in that city like a dream
         E minorEm
see the breezes go around you
   FF     C majorC
see the long grasses yield

C majorC         G+G
be out there exiting the bars
         E minorEm
at the finest hour of morning
  FF       C majorC
nearly lost, but not

C majorC         G+G
be warm and steady in the wind
        E minorEm
and your soft, imperfect body
FF    C majorC
do not cover it

C majorC
