C C7
I’ve been here most all my life
F Bb F
Doin’ time behind these bars
G C G
I must’ve walked a thousand miles cross this floor
C C7
But no one can ever say
F Bb F
that I never made my mark
G C
‘Cause when the lights go out tonight, I’ll make one more
Chorus:
F C
Cause I’ve seen faces come and go, many lost and lonely souls
G C
And the stories I could tell you would break your heart
F C F
Lord I guess I’ve seen it all here, here inside these cold dark walls
C G C
While living out my life behind bars
People come from all around and they sit down at my bar
‘Cause Ii serve every kind of whiskey, wine and beer
And each night at closing time, I count the money in my jeans
And it’s always just enough to keep me here
Chorus

I’m just living’ out my life behind bars
