[G] [Gm]
[G]
I'd like to hold my head up and [C] be proud of who I [G] am, but they won't let my secret go [D] [A] untold.
[D]
[G] I paid the debt I owed them, [C] but they're still not [G] satisfied.
Now I'm a [D] branded man out in [G] the cold.
When they let me out of prison, [C] I held my head [G] up high, determined I would rise above the [D] [A] shame.
[D]
[G] But no matter where I'm living, [C] the black mark [G] follows me.

[G] No matter where I'm living, I [C] got to tell them where [G] I've been, or they'll send me back
to [D] prison if I [G] fail.
I'd like to hold my head up [C] and be proud of who [G] I am, but they won't let my secret go [D] [A] untold.
