G 
This wall divides us 
C                 G 
On two different sides 
C                    G 
But this wall is not real 
C             G 
How can it be real 
                     D               G 
It's only made of concrete and barbed wire 
   C                G 
Concrete and barbed wire 
  C                 G 
Concrete and barbed wire 
                     D                G 
It's only made of concrete and barbed wire 
G                  C                G 
Back in Algiers my darling broke my heart 
                                     D 
But he can't seem to break down this wall 
G                                 C          G 
With two strong hands he couldn't move it at all 
                          D                G 
And it's only made of concrete and barbed wire 
   C                G 
Concrete and barbed wire 
  C                 G 
Concrete and barbed wire 
                     D                G 
It's only made of concrete and barbed wire 
 
SOLO 
 
G                 C               G 
Down in Opelousas dogs are at the gate 
                              D 
And they're mean lord they're mean 
         G                     C               G 
There's a wall between us but it's not what is seems 
                     D                G 
It's only made of concrete and barbed wire 
   C                G 
Concrete and barbed wire 
  C                 G 
Concrete and barbed wire 
                     D                G 
It's only made of concrete and barbed wire 
 
SOLO 
 
G                         C             G 
Somewhere in Louisiana my sugar's doing time 
                             D 
But he can't spend time with me 
      G                   C         G 
It he could get over this wall he'd see 
                           D               G 
That it's only made of concrete and barbed wire 
   C                G 
Concrete and barbed wire 
  C                 G 
Concrete and barbed wire 
                     D                G 
It's only made of concrete and barbed wire 
   C                G 
Concrete and barbed wire 
  C                 G 
Concrete and barbed wire 
                     D                G 
It's only made of concrete and barbed wire
