The Wall Tabs & Lyrics by Johnny Cash
The Wall
guitar tabs lyrics
[G]
Well there�s a lot of strange men, in cell block ten,
[G7] [D]
but the strangest of them all,
[C] [Em] [G]
was a friend of mine, who spent his time, staring at the wall,
[Em] [G]
just staring at the wall.
[G]
As he stared at that wall, so strong and tall,
[G7] [D]
you could hear him softly curse,
[C] [Em] [G]
Nobody at all ever climbed that wall, but I'm gonna be the first,
[Em] [G]
yeah I'm gonna be the first.
[G]
Well the warden walked by and said son don't try,
[G7] [D]
I'd hate to see you fall,
[C] [Em] [G]
Cause there aint no doubt they're gonna carry you out, if you ever touch that wall,
[Em] [G]
if you ever touch that wall.
[G]
Well a years gone by since he made his try,
[G7] [D]
but I can still recall,
[C] [Em] [G]
how hard he tried and the way he died, but he never made that wall,
[Em] [G]
no he never made that wall.
[G]
There�s never been a man ever shook this can,
[G7] [D]
but I know a man who tried,
[C] [Em] [G]
the newspapers called it a jail break plan, but I know it was suicide,
[Em] [G]
I know it was suicide.
