San Quentin, you've been livin' hell to me
                       D                    A
You've hosted me since nineteen sixty three
E                                              A
I've seen 'em come and go and I've seen them die
A             E                  A
And long ago I stopped askin' why

    A               E               A
San Quentin, I hate evry inch of you.
                       D                        A
You've cut me and have scarred me thru an' thru.
E                                   A
And I'll walk out a wiser weaker man;
A                      E                  A
Mister Congressman why can't you understand.

    A             E                       A
San Quentin, what good do you think you do?
                    D                              A
Do you think I'll be different when you're through?
    E                                         A
You bent my heart and mind and you may my soul,
         A                   E                  A
And your stone walls turn my blood a little cold.

    A                E                   A
San Quentin, may you rot and burn in hell.
                              D            A
May your walls fall and may I live to tell.
   E                                   A
May all the world forget you ever stood.
        A             E                      A
And may all the world regret you did no good.

    A                   E              A
San Quentin, you've been livin' hell to me.
