Capo I

     G5               D5
On a Monday, I was arrested 
                                 G5
On a Tuesday, I was locked up in jail 
                               D5
On a Wednesday, my trial was attested 
                                  G5
On a Thursday, nobody would go my bail 

         G5           D5             G5           D5              G5           D5
Yes, I m all, almost done, yes I m all, almost done, yes, I m all, almost done
      D5                                      G5
And I ain t gonna bring them yellow women no pail 

G5                                          D5
Take these stripes, stripes from around my shoulder 
                                               G5
Take these chains, these chains from around my legs 
                                        D5
Lord, these stripes, stripes sure don't worry me 
                                              G5
But these chains, these chain's gonna kill me dead

On Saturday, my baby went a-walking 
                                      G5
On a Sunday, she locked me outa the door 
                                     D5
On a Monday, we were sitting down a-talking 
                                   G5
On a Tuesday, she pawned all of my clothes

         G5           D5             G5           D5              G5           D5
Yes, I m all, almost done, yes I m all, almost done, yes, I m all, almost done

And I ain t gonna bring them yellow women no pail
