Standard (EADGBE)

heaven knows you're miserable now

 but it's the path you chose

 and now you pay with years

 in pelican bay (here we come for sure)

 so you shanked a few

 and you've gone a bit numb to it

Refrain

 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

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
