G+G C majorC G+G
Well I'm branded, wherever I go
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
Tryna outrun a bad story everybody seems to know
G+G C majorC G+G
Might as well be wearin' a ball and chain
G+G D MajorD G+G
Cos everywhere I travel I see a picture with a number by my name
G+G C majorC G+G
Spent some time in San Francisco, locked up for vagrancy
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
I busted out a time or two, took a run at gettin' free
G+G C majorC G+G
They put me back in the jailhouse, I finished servin' my time
G+G D MajorD G+G
Turned me loose, and the man's set to dog me to the end of the line
G+G C majorC G+G
But I'm branded, wherever I go
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
Tryna outrun a bad story everybody seems to know
G+G C majorC G+G
Might as well be wearin' a ball and chain
G+G D MajorD G+G
Cos everywhere I travel I see a picture with a number by my name
G+G C majorC G+G
The trouble with the truth: it always comes around
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
It seems to be there waitin' for me, in every town
G+G C majorC G+G
Well I'm guilty of the crime, of tryna get back home
G+G D MajorD G+G
Don't wanna bother nobody, just wanna be left alone
G+G C majorC G+G
But I'm branded, wherever I go
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
Tryna outrun a bad story everybody seems to know
G+G C majorC G+G
Might as well be wearin' a ball and chain
G+G D MajorD G+G
