Johnny Cash - Please Don't Let Me Out: chords

A#                                  D#                     A#
I've been in jail eleven years and parole has just come through,
                                                         F
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,
                                      F                 A#
Please let me stay where I belong, please don't let me out.!

How could I tell those friends of mine they've seen the last of me
Can't I make you understand I never can be free
Because that's a big unfriendly world and I don't know the route
That leads to where I may belong please don't let me out

I had to learn to get along without a lot of things
And I had to learn to live with the loneliness confinement brings
And I learnt to take no mail from home or whatever came about
Now I'm dug in and I'm happy here please don't let me out

Yes, that's a big unfriendly world and I don't know the route
That leads to where I may belong, please don't let me out
