Let me tell you 'bout Wayne and his deals of cocaine
A
A little more every day
E G#m
Holding for a friend till the band do well
B E
Then the D.E.A. locked him away
E A E
Clang clang, go the jail guitar doors
E A E
Bang bang, go the boots on the floor
E A E
Cry cry, for your lonely mother's son
E A
Clang clang, go the jail guitar doors
E B
And I'll tell you 'bout Pete, didn't want no fame
A
Gave all his money away
E G#m
"Well there's something wrong, it'll be good for you, son"
B E
And so they certified him insane
E A E
Clang clang, go the jail guitar doors
E A E
Bang bang, go the boots on the floor
E A E
Cry cry, for your lonely mother's son

Clang clang, go the jail guitar doors

And then there's Keith, waiting for trial
A
Twenty-five thousand bail
E G#m
If he goes down you won't hear his sound
B E
But his friends carry on anyway, fuck 'em!
E A E
Clang clang, go the jail guitar doors
E A E
Bang bang, go the boots on the floor

Cry cry, for your lonely mother's son

Clang clang, go the jail guitar doors
