E
I stood before the judge that day
A E
As he refused my bail
And I knew that I would spend my time
B
Awaiting trial in jail
E
I said there is no justice
A E
As they led me out of the door
A E
And the judge said, "This isn't a court of justice son
B E
This is a court of law".
E
They first sent me to Windsor
A E
And then to Stoke on Trent
In a holding cell in Liverpool
B
Three days and nights I spent
E
My solicitor can't find me
A E
And my family don't know
A E
I keep telling them that I'm innocent
B E E7
They just say, "Come on son, in you go."
A E
I was picked up on suspicion of something I haven't done
E D#/E C#/E B/E B
Here I sit in 'F' wing waiting for my trial to come
A E A
It's a cruel unusual punishment that society demands
E B E
Innocent till proven guilty, rotting on remand
A E B E C#7

I ended up in this jail
B F#
Built in 18-82
When one man to one prison cell
C#
Was a Victorian value
F#
Now three of us are squeezed in here
B F#
And you can't escape the smell
B F#
Of that bucket in the corner
C# F#
And we eat in here as well
They let me out of this cage
B F#
To slop that bucket out
To get my food and bring it back
C#
And if I'm lucky, get a shower
F#
Apart from one hours exercise
B F#
I'm locked in here all day
B F#
You don't turn criminals into citizens
C# F# F#7
By treating them this way
B F#
Is the prize of law and order the stench of Wormwood Scrubs
F# F/F# D#/F# C#/F# C#
With judges quick to sentence sending more down from above
B F# B
It's a cruel unusual punishment that society demands
F# C# F#
Innocent till proven guilty, rotting on remand B F# C# F# ...
