G C GI'd like to hold my head up and be proud of who I am
DBut they won't let my secret go untold
G C GI paid the debt I owed them,but they're still not satisfied
D GNow I'm a branded man out un the cold
G C GWhen they let me out of prison,I held my head up high
DDetermined I would rise above the shame
G C GBut no matter where I'm living,the black mark follows me
D GI'm branded with a number on my name
Repeat verse 1
G C GIf I live to be a hundred,I guess I'll never clear my name
D'Cause everybody knows I've been in jail
G C GNo matter where I'm living,I've got to tell them where I've been
D GOr they'll send me back to prison if I fail
Repeat verse 1
D GNow I'm a branded man out un the cold
