	        (C) Slowly the long day turns to night  
And soon they'll turn out the prison (G7) lights  
But in my cell I'm making plans  
To be with you at home a-(C) gain. 
 
(C) These walls and bars can't hold a (G7) dreamin' man  
So I'll be home to tuck the (F) babies (C) in  
They can chain my body but not my (G7) mind  
And I'll break out again, to-(C) night. 
 
The warden thinks I'm in for life  
'Cause all he's ever seen me wear is stripes  
He don't know 'bout my blue suit and my tie  
That I wear when I'm with you each night.  
 
CHORUS 
 
TAG: And (G7) I'll break out again, to-(C) night.
