Warden
The warden stands tall as he walks down the hall
Puts all our lives on the shelf
The warden goes home and he lives there alone
How does he live with himself?
(Chorus)
How does the warden sleep at night?
Spend all his days there too
Does he toss and turn does his conscience burn
Is he a prisoner too?
Down in his pin full of sorrow and sin
Days weigh heavy on his chest
When the warden goes home does he worry and groan
How does he get any rest?
chorus
Well I look through the bars, to look at the stars
We’re all the same so it seems
When the warden is home is his heart full of stone
Can he find peace in his his dreams?
Chorus x2
Does he toss and turn, does his conscience burn
Is he a prisoner too?
Capo 2
Verse Chords: G C G G D, G C G D G
Chorus Chords: C G G D, G C G D G |

Just realised that the first version I heard had a slightly different lyric in the first verse...
The warden stands tall as he walks down the hall
Puts all our lives on the shelf
In his big feather bed, with his heart full of lead
How does he live with himself?
How does the warden sleep at night... |
