The Prisoner Chords by The Clash

[Intro]

[Verse]
A7 D                      A          
■  The prisoner meets the muppet hifi
G                Bm       G A
North of Watford Junction ■ ■
D                A             
We get in but we don't have fun
       G                B7         A
An' we leave before the truncheons ■
G                     Gb7        G  
So it's back to watch the day to day
                Gb7   
Saga of working people
G                           Gb7      G      
Hanging out the washing and clipping coupons
    D               A7    
And generally being decent
D                    A7        A   
Johnny too bad meets Johnny be good
G                      A   
■ In the charing cross road
D                   A             
The only thing that happened today
     G                   Bm  
Says the west end jungle code
    G                 Gb7               
And ■ all the Germans and all the French
G                   Gb7     
Jam themselves down the tube
    G           Gb7             
And reenact the second world war
D                       A   
While the rude boys get rude
    D                
And I look to my left
           G          
And I look to my right


[Chorus]
D   A7                   
And I'm looking for a man
A7                    
I'm looking for a sign
  G                              
I don't wanna be the the prisoner
                     C       
I don't wanna be the prisoner
D             Bm G           
I don't wanna be the prisoner
  D Bm    G D       Bm G           
I ■ don't ■ ■ wanna be the prisoner
D Bm G A7
■ ■  ■ ■ 


[Verse]
D                  A7        G   
The prisoner lives in Camden town
        Bm7       
Selling revolution
D                  A                G 
The prisoner loads his tracking arm up
     Bm              G
With selfdisillusion ■
                 Gb7           
Your mother does the washing up
G                 Gb7       
Your old man digs the garden
G           Gb7                   
You're only free to dodge the cops
D7       D   A7              
An' bunk the train to stardom
D          A7    D   
And I look to my left
                 G    
And I look to my right


[Chorus]
D         A             A7  A
■ And I'm looking for a man ■
    G                 
I'm looking for a sign
  C     D     Bm7    G        D
I don't wanna be the prisoner ■
  Bm    G D       Bm     G        D
I don't ■ ■ wanna be the prisoner ■
        D    
I don't wanna
Bm G A7 E7 A7 E A7 E
■  ■ ■  ■  ■  ■ ■  ■


[Outro]
