Em (riff)
Raised in a prison with iron bars
And walls too high to be climbed
Raised in a four cornered corridor
Always kept silent and blind

Break: repeat Em riff x4


[Em]    Taught how to grow straight and upright
[C]     Taught how to love and obey
[Em]    Taught how to speak when you're spoken to
[A]     And then taught what you can say

[A]     Slot into the job like a glove

Break: repeat Em riff x4

Break: repeat Em riff x4

[Em]    Renting a house on the East Side of hell

Different Break: play verse chords
