heaven knows you're miserable now 
                  G
but it's the path you chose 
                      C
and now you pay with years 
                                       G
in pelican bay (here we come for sure) 
             Em
so you shanked a few 
                    Am                        Em
and you've gone a bit numb to it 

refrain:                 
                  G                                        C
but on the day the doors open up for you 
            Em                     G
you believe there will be 
                                  C
a life waiting there for you 
             Am	              C
in the fields of Salinas 

C?etc
when you shout something louder than bombs 
it's just the chance you take 
but your tattooed tears done in the yard 
they won't dry today 
you've lost your love for good 
to those damn Surenos 

but on the day the doors open up for you 
you believe there will be 
a life waiting there for you 
in the fields of Salinas 

there is no love 
there is no peace with you 
but there is an understanding here 

there no chance 
there is no way without it 
and this will change everything you know
