This Place Is A Prison Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Near the end he walks from C to Em; to do this, incorporate picking the low C note

[A string, 3rd fret], to the B right under it [A string, 2nd fret], and then G

[low E string, 3rd fret] into your strumming, followed by Em, with a strong accent

on the open E. It isn't required but it sounds really nice the way it follows the

vocals, and gives the song somewhat of a signature sound.

Intro

Em G

EmThis place is a Gprison

EmAnd these people aren't yourG friends

EmInhaling thrills throughG twenty dollar bills

DAs the tumblers are drained

And then flooded again Cand again

Dsus4-Em-G x2

EmThere's guards at the Gon ramps

EmArmed to the Gteeth

EmAnd you may case the grounds

From the CasGcades to Puget Sound

DBut you are not permitted to leave

CI know there's a big Dsus4world out there

Like theEm one that I saw onG the screen

CIn my living room Dsus4late last night

It was Emalmost too bright tCo see

And I know that it'sDsus4 not a party

If it Emhappens every Cnight

Pretending there's glamour Dsus4and candelabra

EmAs you're drinking by candlelight

Em Dsus4

C WALK - TO - Em Dsus4

What does it take to get a drink in this place?

CWhat does it take, how long mustEm I wait?
