Prison To Heaven

The Avett Brothers

Tom original: G Capotraste: Sem capotraste Acordes: 3

Verse 1

G        C
Swaying, it's a hard decision am I gonna leave this prison
C                                                           G
If they tell me one more time to get in line, I'm gonna breakaway
G           C
But I'm sure that every single prison guard that walks around this prison yard
C                                                         G                      G
Is gonna have a shot at me if he sees me running for the gate

Verse 2

C
I'd be better off dead, full of lead, rather than delay one more day
                                                   G
Letting my mind and my body rot away in this awful place
C
I'd be floating way up so high looking down
At all my buddies saying, “You chumps, you suckers
                                        G
I hope one day you can find the guts to escape”

Verse 3

G                     C
Well, you might say, “How come you so sure heaven's where you're going?
                                                     G
You ain't exactly been showin' the ways of an angel, glory bound”
         C
I must admit you got a point, but I got a feeling the ceiling ain't so far
                                                   G
And Yahweh just may want a couple words with yours truly

Verse 4

           D                                                   C
So I'll be walking right up to those big pearly gates, saying, “Hey Saint Peter, ol' Buddy, ol' pal
G
How's the family, how's work, how's the kids?
What do you say, how's about crackin' those gates?
              D                                           G
And lettin' a fine upstanding fellow like myself join the club?”

Verse 5

G                 C
And he might say, “Ah, Mr. Avett you can save it, I ain't gonna be buying any of that lyin’, jive, hustlin'
Boldfaced, fake conman nonsense that you used to get by with
              G
Down there on Earth

Verse 6

G                       C
And I'll say, “Come on, surely you and God of all people ought to know
I was innocent of those crimes, I told you so
Every night by myself in that cell
                                   G
Surrounded by nothing but grey and quiet”

Outro

G              C
Well dear God, maybe I should just be talking straight to you
                                               G
The truth is I lost my way somewhere along the way
C
And if you got a minute would you spend it with a sinner?
                                            G
Just long enough to give me some directions home
