Introduction:

        D2  Dm9  Em7/D  Dm9(2x)  
D2              Dm9              Em7/D                            Dm9  
There's a blind man in the witness stand
D2              Dm9              Em7/D                            Dm9  
With three young men's lives in his hands
D2              Dm9                         Em7/D                    Dm9  
There's a poor boy who stood at the scene
D2              Dm9                            Em7/D                                 Dm9  
Who'll be haunted by the dirty things he's seen
D2    Dm9    Em7/D    Dm9  
D2      Dm9                         Em7/D                         Dm9  
It's a shame all the jury knew the accused
D2                              Dm9                         Em7/D                                    Dm9  
'Cos now they're running free when they left her cold and bruised
D2              Dm9                         Em7/D                                 Dm9  
There's a chalked white line stained with blood
D2  Dm9                         Em7/D                    Dm9  
Sorry Mr. Jones, we did all we could
A                                                            C                                                                                                  F7+  
There's a whole lot of people out there and they're all running free
A                                                 C                                                                                                  F7+  
Some will kill and some will steal the last breath that you breathe
             D2  Dm9  Em7/D  Dm9  
From you
             D2  Dm9  Em7/D  Dm9  
From you
D2      Dm9                 Em7/D                         Dm9  
So Mr. Jones in a cruel twist of fate
D2              Dm9                      Em7/D                    Dm9  
Found the perpetrators in a drunken haze
D2              Dm9                      Em7/D                                 Dm9  
Gave them retribution for their twisted ways
D2              Dm9                         Em7/D                              Dm9  
Now he's going down for years instead of days
A                                                            C                                                                                                  F7+  
There's a whole lot of people out there and they're all running free
A                                                 C                                                                                                  F7+  
Some will kill and some will steal the last breath that you breathe
             D2  Dm9  Em7/D  Dm9  
From you
             D2  Dm9  Em7/D  Dm9  
From you
             D2  
From you...
