[Refrain]G C GI'd like to hold my head up and be proud of who I amDBut they won't let my secret go untoldG C GI paid the debt I owed them, but they're still not satisfiedD GNow I'm a branded man out in the cold[Strophe]G C GWhen they let me out of prison, I held my head up highDDetermined I would rise above the shameG C GBut no matter where I'm living, the black mark follows meD GI'm branded with a number on my name[Refrain]G C GI'd like to hold my head up and be proud of who I amDBut they won't let my secret go untoldG C GI paid the debt I owed them, but they're still not satisfiedD GNow I'm a branded man out in the cold[Strophe]G C GIf I live to be a hundred,I guess I'll never clear my nameD'Cause everybody knows I've been in jailG C GNo matter where I'm living, I've got to tell them where I've beenD GOr they'll send me back to prison if I fail[Refrain]G C GI'd like to hold my head up and be proud of who I amDBut they won't let my secret go untoldG C GI paid the debt I owed them, but they're still not satisfiedD GNow I'm a branded man out in the coldD GNow I'm a branded man out in the cold
