Branded Man Chords

[Chorus]
G                                  C              G
I'd like to hold my head up and be proud of who I am
                                  D
But they won't let my secret go untold
  G                                      C              G
I paid the debt I owed them, but they're still not satisfied
                  D              G
Now I'm a branded man out in the cold
 
[Verse 1]
G                                 C               G
When they let me out of prison, I held my head up high
                                  D
Determined I would rise above the shame
       G                            C                  G
But no matter where I'm living, the black mark follows me
                   D            G
I'm branded with a number on my name
 
[Chorus]
G                                  C              G
I'd like to hold my head up and be proud of who I am
                                  D
But they won't let my secret go untold
  G                                      C              G
I paid the debt I owed them, but they're still not satisfied
                  D              G
Now I'm a branded man out in the cold
 
[Verse 2]
G                                      C              G
If 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               G
No matter where I'm living, I've got to tell them where I've been
                           D           G
Or they'll send me back to prison if I fail
 
[Chorus]
G                                  C              G
I'd like to hold my head up and be proud of who I am
                                  D
But they won't let my secret go untold
  G                                      C              G
I paid the debt I owed them, but they're still not satisfied
                  D              G
Now I'm a branded man out in the cold
                  D              G
Now I'm a branded man out in the cold
