Warden Chords & Lyrics - Misc Unsigned Bands - The Tin Box Boys

[F#m]I'm ready warden, to meet my end
[D]To believe my soul I lend
[A]Believe my mark upon the Earth
[E]Goodbye my wish to walk it's girth
[F#m]Hello soul, within the ground
[D]I'll go quiet, no cry, no sound

[A]I'm ready warden
[E]Yes I'm ready

[F#m]I never did play that well free
[D]Put the bird in the cage, that dog on a leash
[A]But be sure to put that dog down
[E]Don't fear his bark, now he can't make a sound

[F#m]Cause we're the wardens
[D]And we're ready
[A]Yeah we're the wardens
[E]And we're ready

[F#m]Well, put the man in the war and he'll kill just fine
[D]But guilt only comes when the killing is defined
[A]Grab your gun, and head to the hills,
[E]Get ready

[F#m]Well twelve men stood, and the judge said he
[D]Who murdered Lil' Sadie in the first degree
[A]He cut her down in cold blood
[E]Now he must wear the rope, and he must wear the hood

[F#m]It's heavy boys
[D]It gets heavy
[A]It's heavy boys
[E]It gets heavy

[F#m]I knew the price, but I couldn't pay the bill
[D]Now my grave is the counter, and the gallow's the till
[A]Leave me just two coins please
[E]To pay the man at the boat, and lucifer his fee

[F#m]Just drop me warden
[D]Cause I'm ready
[A]Yeah drop me warden
[E]Cause I'm ready

[F#m]And through the hood now I draw my last breath
[D]Blurred shapes through the hood are my last friends left
[A]I'm sorry for all of the things I've done
[E]Let the people cheer, death hammer on his drum
[F#m]But no you don't got anything for free
[D]Gonna want a way out, better follow me
[A]A killer's still a killer with a gavel or not
[E]Remember your coin sir, your feet are getting hot

[F#m]You're next warden
[D]Yes you're next
[A]Cause it's your neck warden
[E]Your neck
