John Lennon - Born In A Prison: chords

       C                  Cm
We're born in a prision, raised in a prision
 C                         C7
Send to a prision called school,
     F                    Fm
We cry in a prision, We love in a prision,
     C                       D
We dream in a prision, like fools.
 E                              C#m
Wood becomes a flute when it's loved,
 A                           B
reach for yourself and your battered mates.
 E                                C#m
Mirror becomes a razor when it's broken,
 A                                B
Look in the mirror and see your shattered fate.

We live with no reason, kicked round for no reason,
Thrown out without reason like tools.
Work in a prison and hate in a prison
And die in a prison as a rule.
Wood becomes a flute when it's loved,
reach for yourself and your battered mates.
Mirror becomes a razor when it's broken,
Look in the mirror and see your shattered fate.

We live in a prison among judges and wardens
And wait for no reason or use
We laugh in a prision, go through all four seasons
And die with no vision or truth
Wood becomes a flute when it's loved,
reach for yourself and your battered mates.
Mirror becomes a razor when it's broken,
Look in the mirror and see your shattered fate.
