Capo: 3

Hey, this is my first posting, and i never liked the other versions of Prison Bound on acoustic, so I thought I'd post my own. "Prison Bound" by Social Distortion, on "Prison Bound" circa 1988 Standard Tuning, Capo 3rd Fret All of the song follows a basic bass strum pattern for C and G, straight strumming for Am-F. Intro: C G Am G F Verse 1:

Well I'm G^Coin' to a place where the ^Gtough guys go, and ^Amcome out ^Geven ^Ftougher. A place wh^Cere a man don't sh^Gow his feelings, a ^Amplace where a m^Gan do^Fn't cry.

Well they ^Csay I'm being punished and^G they say I can be reformed, but ^Amsomeday ^GI'll R^Feturn.

Did they r^Ceally think that th^Gis time it'd work? ^AmYou knew ^Gall along it ^Fwouldn't!

Chorus:

^COh, I'm ^Gprison bound, I did a ^Amcrime one ^Gtoo many ^Ftimes. ^CIt's on the outskirts of town, by the ^Grailroad tracks, where the ^Amcountry

^Gmoon ^Fshines. ^COh, I'm ^Gprison bound, tell my ^Amgirl I'll ^Gbe back one d^Fay.

^COh, I'm ^Gprison bound, I may ne^Amver know a^Gny other,^F any other way. ^Cany other w^Gay. ^Am ^G ^F

Verse 2:

Well they^C take away my freedom of e^Gxpression and action, but J^Amohnny says I ^Gwalk the ^Fline.

With thre^Ce hots and a cot, and allo^Gt of talk that lock^Ams up conc^Grete and s^Fteel Well it's^C cold and it's clammy, and it's c^Golder than a pimp's heart, but I've

^Amgotta ^Gdo my ^Ftime. There's a^C lesson to be learned here^G, but what a price to pay, you k^Amnow, I may

^Gnever l^Fearn.

Chorus: (Play 2x more)

^COh, I'm ^Gprison bound, I did a ^Amcrime one ^Gtoo many ^Ftimes ^CIt's on the outskirts of town, by the ^Grailroad tracks, where the ^Amcountry
