A Man's Home Is His Castle

[G]Linda works the diner pourin' [C]coffee slingin' hash
She said, "[D]I wouldn't have come in today but I [C]really need the [G]cash"
I know I can't fool anyone 'cause dark[C] glasses tell no lies
But [D]make-up won't cover up a b[C]lackened e[G]ye" Ohhh [C]no

You see, [G]Jimmy works construction now but [C]yesterday it rained
So he [D]went down to the liquor store and [C]by noon he felt no [G]pain
I came in an hour late then I [C]let his supper burn
Well he [D]hit the roof hit the wall and [C]then it was my [G]turn"

He said "[C]A man's [D]home is his [Em]castle
[C]It always has [G]been [D]and so it [G]remains"   [D]
Bu[C]t he holds the [D]keys in a [G]fist of [C]rage
His home is his [G]castle and [D]mine is a [G]cage [C]

[G]Someone much have heard the noise [C]then they dialed 911
[D]And the cop that showed up at the door asked,"[C]Is there a problem [G]son?"
[G]Jimmy smiled and said "No sir, just a[C] little fight that's all
[D]Hey you know how it get's sometimes when you're [C]layin' down the [G]law",Ohhh [C]no

[G]So I pulled out my suitcase I started [C]packin' up my clothes
[D]And Jimmy said 'Now Linda, where do you [C]expect to go with [G]those'
[G]I told him 'I have tried, but not an [C]ounce of love survives'
[D]Well he grabbed my wrist and shouted you're not [C]leavin' here [Em]alive"[C]  [Em]     [C]

[G]She said "I'm savin' up my money and when I [C]get the nerve I'll run
[D]But Jim don't give up easily so I [C]intend to buy a [G]gun
[G]He will never see the way he [C]treats me is a crime
[D]Somebody oughta lock him up but [C]I'm the one "[D]Who's done the time"

He said "[C]A man's [D]home is his [Em]castle
[C]It always has [G]been [D]and so it [G]remains"   [D]
[C]But he holds the [D]keys in a [G]fist of [C]rage
His home is his [G]castle and [D]mine is a [G]cage [C]    [G]
