Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I went to college, and[G] I went to jail
[D]One was a dorm room, [A]one was a cell
Who [D]came out on top, hell [G]it's hard to tell
[D]I went to coll[Bm]ege,
an[A]d I went to [D]jail

[Verse 2]
[D]
We both grew up [G]in the 615
Both [D]sides of the train tracks
had [A]two different lives
[D]Both sons of sinners, [G]needn't set free
We [D]met at a party over [A]big
bags of [D]weed[A]

[Verse 3]
[D]I went to college, and [G]I went to jail
[D]One was a dorm room, [A]one was a cell

[D]I went to coll[Bm]ege, and I[A] went to j[D]ail

[Verse 4]
[D]
I was supposed to go four years,
and [G]quit after one
I was [D]sentenced to seven,
but after [A]four I was done
I [D]burned all my books, [G]I stayed up and read
I [D]could have been a doctor,
I [A]should have been [D]dead[A]

[Verse 5]
[D]I went to college, and [G]I went to jail
[D]One was a dorm room, [A]one was a cell
Who [D]came out on top, hell [G]it's hard to tell
[D]I went to coll[Bm]ege, and I[A] went to j[D]ail

[Verse 6]
[D]
Who could have figured,
and [G]who could have known
We'd [D]both wind up working
down [A]on music rolls
[D]Ten years hard labor,
we've [G]both paid our dues
I'm [D]singing that country,
I'm [Am]singing them [D]blues[Bb][D]

[Eb]One was a dorm room, o[Bb]ne was a cell
Who [Eb]came out on top,
