Prison Without Martha Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em][F#m][D][G][Abdim][Asus4][A]
The [Em]holidays are [A]near now,
[D]a nip is in [Bm]the air
But [Em]since she left my [F#m]prison [D]cell,
it's more [G]than [Abdim]I can bear[Asus4][G][A]
The [D]cell bars won't be [F#m]festooned
in [Em]cheery red and [A]green
The [Em]concrete slab I [A]sleep on
will [D]not be squeaky clean
[A]And you[D] won't hear no carols
[G]coming from the lat[Abdim]rine
Pris[G]on is[A]n't prison without [Asus4]Martha[A]
Our [D]blankets won't be fol[F#m]ded
into [Em]little [A]angels' wings
Our [Em]shanks will not be [A]molded
into [D]shiny napkin ring[A]s
And the [D]warden and her guard[F#dim]s
won't dress up [G]like we three [Abdim]kings
[Asus4]Prison isn'[A]t prison without Ma[D]rtha
Oh [Em]Martha, though you've
[A]left us for real[D]ity TV
[Bm]Still [Em]your old set of [F#m]handcuffs
sits atop our [G]Christ[Abdim] mas tree[Asus4]
[A]Our bed[D]sheets won't be [F#m]tie -dyed
to [Em]cel ebrate the Yule
[A]Our jum[Em]psuits won't be gli[A]tter -glued
to [D]look sew Christmas [A]Kewl,
and [D]we'll see no oatmeal
[F#m]Santas [D]swimmin[G]g in our gru[Abdim]el.
[Asus4]Prison isn't pr[A]ison without Ma[D]rtha.[A]
[D]Whip [F#m]it good!
[Em]Hm m, why do[Asus4]n't my license plate[Em]s
turn [A]out like hers?
[D]I can't unders[A]tand it.
[D]I use the very s[F#dim]ame drill press[G].
I won[Abdim]der if she was lying[A]
about those calibra[Em]tions.[D]
[C]The [D]goo[Em]d life is all ove[A]r,
I've [D]lost my hotsy [Bm]totsy
Oh [Em]how I miss the [F#m]gawking
of them [G]stalking [Abdim]paparazzi[Asus4][A]
No [D]one can hear the [F#m]peeling
of your [E]raw potato bell[A]s
Our [Em]bread and water pudding
[A]just [D]never really gels
[A]And the [D]mess hall isn't fra[F#dim]grant
with your [G]patent -pending [Abdim]spell s
Now [Em]that you're a pa[A]rolee,
[Em]we missed your guacamole
[Asus4]While we're all[Em] stuck in prison,[A]
your [Em]net worth's only [A]risen
It [Em]wouldn't hurt to phone [A]us
and [Em]share your Christmas bo[Asus4]nus
Of [Em]course you'll be for[A]given,
you're [Em]Martha Stewart [Asus4]living
[A]It's [Em]a hokey pokey[Asus4],
[A]we're not [G]Martha[Em][G][Gm][D]
you
