[Verse 1]
C                                        F
I was raised, born and bred in a prairie town
       G                                        C
When a dark eyed woman really laid the feelings down
C                                       F
We were one, had our fun in our younger years
         G
Well I remember damn well she loved me
          F                     C
And she remembers damn well she cared


[Chorus]
C           F          C   F        C          Bb      F
Stonegates, closing me in, if I get free won't see me again
C           F            C   Am                   F
Stonegates, wish I could be, back in the country, wish I was free

[Verse 2]
C                                      F
I was down, leaving town on a midnight train
       G                                            C
When a long legged woman come walking down platform A
C                                         F
She was lean, made a scene as she came my way
        G                                                 F              C
Well we traveled on down through the Midwest towns, in Chicago we parted ways


[Chorus]
C           F          C   F        C          Bb      F
Stonegates, closing me in, if I get free won't see me again
C           F            C   Am                   F
Stonegates, wish I could be, back in the country, wish I was free

C           F            C   Am                   F
Stonegates, wish I could be, back in the country, wish I was free
