Intro: G
           G     C           G
Well I'm branded, wherever I go
  G                                           D  A  D
Tryna outrun a bad story everybody seems to know
                   G    C             G
Might as well be wearin' a ball and chain
       G                          D                          G
Cos everywhere I travel I see a picture with a number by my name

                            G    C                 G
Spent some time in San Francisco, locked up for vagrancy
          G                                         D  A  D
I busted out a time or two, took a run at gettin' free
                           G     C                        G
They put me back in the jailhouse, I finished servin' my time
            G                          D                        G
Turned me loose, and the man's set to dog me to the end of the line

           G     C           G
But I'm branded, wherever I go
  G                                           D  A  D
Tryna outrun a bad story everybody seems to know
                   G    C             G
Might as well be wearin' a ball and chain
       G                          D                          G
Cos everywhere I travel I see a picture with a number by my name

                       G   C                  G
The trouble with the truth: it always comes around
            G                                  D  A  D
It seems to be there waitin' for me, in every town
                         G   C                   G
Well I'm guilty of the crime, of tryna get back home
              G                       D         G
Don't wanna bother nobody, just wanna be left alone

           G     C           G
But I'm branded, wherever I go
  G                                           D  A  D
Tryna outrun a bad story everybody seems to know
                   G    C             G
Might as well be wearin' a ball and chain
       G                          D                          G
Cos everywhere I travel I see a picture with a number by my name
