F
I stood before the judge that day
A# F
As he refused my bail
And I knew that I would spend my time
C
Awaiting trial in jail
F
I said there is no justice
A# F
As they led me out of the door
A# F
And the judge said, "This isn't a court of justice son
C F
This is a court of law".
F
They first sent me to Windsor
A# F
And then to Stoke on Trent
In a holding cell in Liverpool
C
Three days and nights I spent
F
My solicitor can't find me
A# F
And my family don't know
A# F
I keep telling them that I'm innocent
C F F7
They just say, "Come on son, in you go."
A# F
I was picked up on suspicion of something I haven't done
F E/F D/F C/F C
Here I sit in 'F' wing waiting for my trial to come
A# F A#
It's a cruel unusual punishment that society demands
F C F
Innocent till proven guilty, rotting on remand
A# F C F D7
G
I ended up in this jail
C G
Built in 18-82
When one man to one prison cell
D
Was a Victorian value
G
Now three of us are squeezed in here
C G
And you can't escape the smell
C G
Of that bucket in the corner
D G
And we eat in here as well
They let me out of this cage
C G
To slop that bucket out
To get my food and bring it back
D
And if I'm lucky, get a shower
G
Apart from one hours exercise
C G
I'm locked in here all day
C G
You don't turn criminals into citizens
D G G7
By treating them this way
C G
Is the prize of law and order the stench of Wormwood Scrubs
G F#/G E/G D/G D
With judges quick to sentence sending more down from above
C G C
It's a cruel unusual punishment that society demands
G D G
Innocent till proven guilty, rotting on remand C G D G ...
