I'll Break Out Again Tonight

(intro) C G G7 C

      C
    Slowly the long day turns to night,
                                          G
    and soon they'll turn out the prison lights,

    but in my cell I'm making plans,
                G7           C
    to be with you at home again.

       C                            G
These walls and bars can't hold a         dreamin' man,
                             F     C
so I'll be home to tuck the babies in.
           C                        G
They can chain my body, but not my mind,
               G7           C
and I'll break out again, tonight.

         C
    The warden thinks I'm in for life,
                                           G
    'cause all he's ever seen me wear is stripes.

    He don't know 'bout my blue suit and my tie,
                       G7               C
    that I wear when I'm with you each night.

       C                            G
These walls and bars can't hold a         dreamin' man,
                             F     C
so I'll be home to tuck the babies in.
           C                        G
They can chain my body, but not my mind,
               G7           C
and I'll break out again, tonight.
       G         G7           C
And I'll break out again, tonight.
