[Verse]
Dm Am
The big day has come
G F
the bell is sounding
Dm Am G F
I run my hands through my hair one last time
Dm Am
outside the prison walls
G F
the town is gathering
Dm Am G F
people are trading crime for crime
[Break]
Dm C Am A# Dm C Am A#
[Verse]
Dm Am
everyone needs to see the prisoner
G F
they need to make it even easier
Dm Am G F
they see me as a symbol, and not a human being
Dm Am
that way they can kill me
G F
say it's not murder, it's a metaphor
Dm Am
we are killing off our own failure
G F
and starting clean

[Verse]
Dm Am
standing in the gallows
G F
everyone turned my way
Dm Am
i hear a voice ask me
G F
if i've got any last words to say
Dm Am G F
and i'm looking out over the field of familiar eyes
Dm Am G F
somewhere in a woman's arms a baby cries
[Break]
Dm C Am A# Dm C Am A#
[Verse]
Dm Am
I think guilt and innocence
G F
they are a matter of degree
Dm Am
what might be justice to you
G F
might not be justice to me
Dm Am
I went to far, i'm sorry
G F
I guess now i'm going home
Dm Am
so let he amongst you
G F
Cast the first stone
[Break]
Dm C Am A# Dm C Am A# Dm C Am A# Dm C Am A#
[Verse]
Dm Am
now we've got all these complicated machines
Dm Am G F
so no one person ever has to have blood on their hands
Dm Am
we've got complex organizations
G F
and if everyone just does their job
Dm Am
no one person has to understand
G F
you might be the wrong color
Dm Am
you might be too poor
G F
justice isn't something just anyone can afford
Dm Am
you might not pull the trigger
G F
you might be out in the car
Dm Am
and you might get a lethal injection
G F
'cause we take a metaphor that far
[Break]

The big day has come
G F
the bell is sounding
Dm Am G F
i run my hands through my hair one last time
Dm Am
outside the prison walls

the town has gathered
Dm Am G F
people are trading crime for crime
[Outro]
Dm Am G F
people are trading crime for crime
Dm Am G F
people are still trading crime for crime
Dm Am G F
people are still trading crime for crime
Dm Am G F
people are still trading crime for crime
Dm Am G F
people are still trading crime for crime
Dm Am G F Dm
people are still trading crime for crime
