[Intro] C G C C [Verse 1]
  C           F           G         C
I once had my freedom and my life before me

    F            C                            G     G7
Was brighter and sweeter than all words could tell

    C         F           G         C
But I lost it all for the love of a woman

    F             C            G           C
Now I'll spend my life in this cold prison cell
[Chorus]
    C           C7              F
One window four walls aaand the doooor that won't open

F               C                    G
That's the only world that I'll ever see

    C           C7              F
One window four walls aaand the doooor that won't open

    G                        C
The warden takes care of the key
[Break] C G C C [Verse 2]
    C            F          G                C
The first time I saw her my friends tried to warn me

    F         C                          G     G7
But I let her fool me with lips soft and sweet

     C           F            G        C
When I found her there in the arms of another

     F          C             G          C
Just one single shot left her dead at my feet
[Chorus]
    C           C7              F
One window four walls aaand the doooor that won't open

F               C                    G
That's the only world that I'll ever see

    C           C7              F
One window four walls aaand the doooor that won't open

    G                        C
The warden takes care of the key
[Verse 3]
    C         F              G          C
The jury that tried me would give me no mercy

     F          C                       G
They said I was guilty that I'd have to pay

  C           F              G          C
Behind prison walls and with no hope of freedom

        F          C                G          C
There's nothing to live for there's no need to pray
[Chorus]
    C           C7              F
One window four walls aaand the doooor that won't open

F               C                    G
That's the only world that I'll ever see

    C           C7              F
One window four walls aaand the doooor that won't open

    G                        C
The warden takes care of the keeeeey ......
