Well, my bad luck is rolling like a snowball headed down a hill
G7                          C
And I can't do nothing 'bout it, I guess I'll just sit here and chill
C     F      C
I’m a lifetime prisoner, and I know I'm never gonna be free
G7                             C
I'll never get out of this world alive, I'll just have to wait and see

C         F        C
Well, my days are numbered, and my count is getting low
G7                          C
And the shadows keep on creeping, everywhere I go
C     F      C
I’m a lifetime prisoner, and I know I'm never gonna be free
G7                             C
I'll never get out of this world alive, I'll just have to wait and see

C        F      C
Well, the nights are long and lonely, and the days are short and cold
G7                          C
And the pain is all around me, just like the stories I've been told
C     F      C
I’m a lifetime prisoner, and I know I'm never gonna be free
G7                             C
I'll never get out of this world alive, I'll just have to wait and see
