You'll never know about the jailhouse blues 'til they put you behind four walls

     C                       A7                 D7                     G7
The jail house man turns the big black key and that's when your spirit falls

    C             C7                  F                F#dim
You drag yourself up to the bars and then you gaze out at the stars

D7                 G7
 Thats when you'll say

C                       A7                  D7     G7        C
Nobody knows about the jailhouse blues, hey nobody knows but me

    C                         A7                D7                     G7
And there on the outside you all can laugh, but I don't need your sympathy

     C                   C7
'Cos after I've paid for what I've stole

     F                         F#dim
I'll leave this place worth my weight in gold

C                       A7              D7     G7        C
Nobody knows about the jailhouse blues, nobody knows but me

C                           A7                      D7        G7        C
You won't realize that your freedoms gone 'til they slam that big iron door

C                             A7                   D7                   G7
You won't realize that you're all alone 'til you're seated in that 2 by 4

C                        C7
My gal said she loves me even shed a tear

    F                               F#dim
She ain't been to see me since they put me here

D7                    G7
But I'll get out some day

C                       A7                  D7     G7        C
Nobody knows about the jailhouse blues, hey nobody knows but me

    C                         A7                D7                     G7
And there on the outside you all can laugh, but I don't need your sympathy

     C                   C7
'Cos after I've paid for what I've stole

     F                         F#dim     G7
I'll leave this place worth my weight in gold

C                       A7                  D7     G7        C
Nobody knows about the jailhouse blues, hey nobody knows but me

    C                         A7                D7                     G7
And there on the outside you all can laugh, but I don't need your sympathy

     C                   C7
'Cos after I've paid for what I've stole

     F                         F#dim     G7
I'll leave this place worth my weight in gold

C                       A7              D7     G7        C
Nobody knows about the jailhouse blues, nobody knows but me
