Verse 1
       C                C7
I am a prisoner in this dark place
       F                                   C
I am a prisoner in the dark places of this house
       C                     C7
And my master comes by every once in a while
        F                               C
Yes, my master comes by and he feeds my mouth
        Am
He is a good man
          Em
You don't know him like I know him
    F       G           F
And I'm his good little girl
       C                    F
I am a prisoner down in the basement of this house
               Am
And I wouldn't trade it
G               F
Not for all the world
           F        G           C
I wouldn't trade it for all the world
Verse 2
        C                 C7
I got a window I can look out and see the light
        F                            C
I got a window, to a set of concrete stairs
               C                 C7
And I can hear footsteps all the people on the street
     F                                   C
Sometimes I get to thinking life is so unfair
           Am
But I am a weakling, honey
      Em
And I can't survive out there
     F               G              F
With nobody round to tell me how to be
       C                  F
I am a prisoner, I can't make it on my own
           Am             G                  F
And I'm so glad my master takes good care of me
   F       G                  C
So glad he takes good care of me
