C Cm We're born in a prision, raised in a prision C C7 Send to a prision called school, F Fm We cry in a prision, We love in a prision, C D We dream in a prision, like fools. E C#m Wood becomes a flute when it's loved, A B reach for yourself and your battered mates. E C#m Mirror becomes a razor when it's broken, A B Look in the mirror and see your shattered fate. We live with no reason, kicked round for no reason, Thrown out without reason like tools. Work in a prison and hate in a prison And die in a prison as a rule. Wood becomes a flute when it's loved, reach for yourself and your battered mates. Mirror becomes a razor when it's broken, Look in the mirror and see your shattered fate. We live in a prison among judges and wardens And wait for no reason or use We laugh in a prision, go through all four seasons And die with no vision or truth Wood becomes a flute when it's loved, reach for yourself and your battered mates. Mirror becomes a razor when it's broken, Look in the mirror and see your shattered fate. | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA  C  Cm  C#m  C7  D  E  F  Fm  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
