[Verse 1]
D5
  Let's get this circus on down the road
We're takin' bets how far a tank of gas will go
Call up your best friend,
then call two more
About to do some shit that you ain't seen before
There ain't no backdoor,
there ain't no sign
Location changes almost every other night
Last time we found it,
can't remember much
I thought I was a God until my lawyer woke me up and said I

[Chorus]
D5   C5        G5               C5
Testify that I was right out of my mind
        D5     C5         G5              C5
Let the record show I did it all for rock and roll
          D5    C5
Screamin' every night,
    G5              C5
playing twenty five to Life

[Bridge]
            F5          G5     C5                D5   C5
So somebody please keep me the hell out of San Quentin
G5 C5           D5   C5
   Out of San Quentin
G5          C5              D5   C5 G5 C5
  Just keep me out of San Quentin        Ooh,
             F5          G5          C5           D5
can somebody please keep me the hell out of San Quentin?

[Verse 2]
D5
  Got out on bail, we hit the town
Somebody told me we should burn it to the ground
Too many favors, too much to drink
Come 6 AM,
they had me back inside the clink

[Chorus]
          D5   C5        G5               C5
I'm gonna testify that I was right out of my mind
        D5     C5         G5              C5
Let the record show I did it all for rock and roll
          D5    C5
Screamin' every night,
    G5              C5
playing twenty five to Life

[Bridge]
            F5          G5     C5                D5   C5

  Just keep me out of San Quentin        Ooh,

[Interlude]
D5
Tough to find, a goddamn alibi
Wrong or right, it's tough to justify
Can't dismiss, too many witnesses
When insanity's the pattern,
it don't matter what it is

[Chorus]
          D5   C5        G5               C5
I'm gonna testify that I was right out of my mind

Let the record show I did it all for rock and roll

Screamin' every night,
    G5              C5

Oh, Just keep me out of San Quentin        Ooh,
