The Wall Johnny Cash
"(1)
There's a l[D]ot of strange men in cell block ten, but the strangest of them
a[A]ll,
was a fr[G]iend of mine who s[D]pent his time[G] starin at the w[D]all.[G] Starin at the
w[D]all. As he lo[G]oked at the wall so st[D]rong and tall, you could h[G]ear him softly
cu[D]rse: Nob[G]ody at all ever cli[D]mbed that wall, but I[G]'m gonna be the fi[D]rst. I[G]'m
gonna be the fi[D]rst. Well, the warden walked by and said son, don't try, I'd
hate to see you fa[A]ll, there i[G]s no doubt they'd car[D]ry you out if you ev[G]er
touch that w[D]all. If you ev[G]er touch that wa[D]ll. Well, a year's gone by since he
made his try, but I can still rec[A]all how ha[G]rd he tried and the wa[D]y he died,
but he ne[G]ver made that w[D]all. He ne[G]ver made that w[D]all. Well, there's ne[G]ver
been a man who ever sh[D]ook this can, but I k[G]now a man who tr[D]ied. The
ne[G]wspapers called it a j[D]ail break plan, but I k[G]now it was sui[D]cide. I k[G]now it
was sui[D]cide.
