INTRO:
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9 (2x)
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
There's a blind man in the witness stand
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
With three young men's lives in his hands
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
There's a poor boy who stood at the scene
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
Who'll be haunted by the dirty things he's seen
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
It's a shame all the jury knew the accused
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
'Cos now they're running free when they left her cold and bruised
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
There's a chalked white line stained with blood
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
Sorry Mr. Jones, we did all we could
A C C* Fmaj7
There's a whole lot of people out there and they're all running free
A C C* Fmaj7
Some will kill and some will steal the last breath that you breathe
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
From you
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
From you
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
So Mr. Jones in a cruel twist of fate
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
Found the perpetrators in a drunken haze
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
Gave them retribution for their twisted ways
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
Now he's going down for years instead of days
A C C* Fmaj7
There's a whole lot of people out there and they're all running free
A C C* Fmaj7
Some will kill and some will steal the last breath that you breathe
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
From you
Dsus2 Dm9 Em7/D Dm9
From you
Dsus2
From you...
