Verse 1
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/f/friendly_savages/the_escape_crd.html ]
D
When he broke the handcuffs, all the families with bad blood clapped their
G
hands.
D
A natural reaction to a man they understand—they clapped their
G
hands
D
The curtains drew. The lights went out. He grabbed a bag of ice and thought of
G
her.
D
He put aside the stinging where the handcuffs cut his hide and thought of
G
her.
Chorus
D G
Oh, our hands are tied (x2)
Following verses work out the same way. Nothing more than D to G progression.
Enjoy!
