F#m  F#m
F#mI'm ready warden, to meet my end
Dmaj7To believe my soul I lend
ATo leave my mark upon the Earth
EGoodbye my wish to walk it's girth
F#mHello soul, within the ground
Dmaj7I'll go quiet, no cry, no sound
AI'm ready warden
EYes I'm ready
F#mI never did play that well free
Dmaj7Put the bird in the cage, that dog on a leash
ABut be sure to put that dog down
EDon't fear his bark, now he can't make a sound
F#mCause we're the wardens
Dmaj7And we're ready
AYeah we're the wardens
EAnd we're ready
F#mWell, put the man in the war and he'll kill just fine
Dmaj7But guilt only comes when the killing is defined
AGrab your gun, and head to the hills, 
EGet ready
F#mWell twelve men stood, and the judge said he
Dmaj7Who murdered Lil' Sadie in the first degree
AHe cut her down in cold blood
ENow he must wear the rope, and he must wear the hood
F#mIt's heavy boys
Dmaj7It gets heavy
AIt's heavy boys
EIt gets heavy
F#mI knew the price, but I couldn't pay the bill
Dmaj7Now my grave is the counter, and the gallow's the till
ALeave me just two coins please
ETo pay the man at the boat, and lucifer his fee
F#mJust drop me warden
Dmaj7Cause I'm ready
AYeah drop me warden
ECause I'm ready
F#mAnd through the hood now I draw my last breath
Dmaj7Blurred shapes through the hood are my last friends left
AI'm sorry for all of the things I've done
ELet the people cheer, death hammer on his drum
F#mBut no you don't got anything for free
Dmaj7Gonna want a way out, better follow me
AA killer's still a killer with a gavel or not
ERemember your coin sir, your feet are getting hot
F#mYou're next warden
Dmaj7Yes you're next
ACause it's your neck warden
EYour neck
