Please Dont Let Me Out

 A                                   D                     A
I've been in jail eleven years and parole has just come through,
                                                        E
The gates will soon swing open wide but I'm not going through.
 D                               A
Jail's the only home I know or care to know about,
                                      E                 A
Please let me stay where I belong, please don't let me out.!
 D                                        A
How could I tell those friends of mine they've seen the last of me,
                                             E
Can't I make you understand I never can be free ?
       D                                    A
Cause that's a big unfriendly world and I don't know the route
                                    E                  A
That leads to where I may belong, please don't let me out!

   A                          D                 A
I had to learn to get along without a lot of things,
                                                             E
And I had to learn to live with the loneliness confinement brings.
        D                                       A
And I learned to take no mail from home or whatever came about,
                                     E                  A
Now I'm dug in and I'm happy here, please don't let me out!
D                                        A
How could I tell those friends of mine they've seen the last of me,
                                             E
Can't I make you understand I never can be free ?
       D                                    A
Cause that's a big unfriendly world and I don't know the route
                                    E                  A
That leads to where I may belong, please don't let me out!
       D                                   A
Yes, that's a big unfriendly world and I don't know the route
                                    E           B7     A
That leads to where I may belong, please don't let me out
