Graham Nash - Prison Songadd

          F#m
One day a friend took me aside
                     Bm
and said, "I have to leave you.
           F#m
For buying something from a friend
                     C#m      C#7
They say I have done wrong.
       F#m
For protecting the name of a man
                      Bm7
they say I'll have to leave you.
           F#m              C#m                Bm7    F#m
So now I'm bidding you farewell for much too long.

             F#m                     Bm7
And here's a song to sing for every man inside.
          F#m                         C#m     C#7
If he can hear you sing it's an open door.
              F#m                          Bm7
There's not a rich man there who couldn't pay his way
            F#m                C#m                 Bm7    F#m
and buy the freedom, that's a high price for the poor.

F#m9          Dm76         F#m9              C#m       C#7
Kids in Texas, smoking grass, ten year sentence, comes to pass.
F#m9       Dm76        F#m9          C#m       C#7
Misdemeanor in Ann Arbor, ask the judges why?

        F#m
Another friend said to her kids
                  Bm
I'm gonna have to leave you
            F#m
For selling something to the man
              C#m     C#7
I guess I did wrong.
               F#m
And although I did the best I could
                  Bm7
I'm gonna have to leave you.
           F#m              C#m          Bm7    F#m
So now I'm kissing you farewell for much too long.

             F#m                     Bm7
And here's a song to sing for every man inside.
          F#m                         C#m     C#7
If he can hear you sing it's an open door.
              F#m                          Bm7
There's not a rich man there who couldn't pay his way
            F#m                C#m      Bm7    F#m7
and buy the freedom, that's a high price for the poor.
