E In the shithouse a shotgun Praying hands hold me down If only the hunter was hunted In this tin can town, tin can town No stars in the black night Looks like the sky fall down No sun in the daylight Looks like it's chained to the ground, chained to the ground Chorus: E A The warden says "The exit's sold." B A If you want a way out... E A E Silver and gold, silver and gold E A E Broken back to the ceiling Broken nose to the floor I scream at the silence It's crawling, crawls under the door There's a rope around my neck And there's a trigger in your gun Jesus, say something! I am someone, I am someone Chorus: Captains and Kings in the ship's hold They came to collect Silver and gold, silver and gold Em I seen the coming and the going Seen the captains and the Kings Seen their navy blue uniforms Seen them bright and shiny things, bright and shiny things The temperature is rising The fever white hot Mister I ain't got nothing But it's more than you've got These chains no longer bind me Nor the shackles at my feet Outside are the prisoners Inside the free (set them free) Chorus: A prize fighter in a corner is told Hit where it hurts - For Silver and Gold You can stop the world from turning around You just gotta pay a penny in the pound You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA E Em B Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
