[Am]
[B] [Am]
30 years for a crime I've [E] never done.
Prison life, better believe it ain't no [Am] fun.
Witness said he saw me [G] with a gun.
I said now judge you've [Am] got it wrong.
It was not me, I was [E] alone.
[B]
[E] But I can't prove it, I was all [Am] alone.
Someone they say shot and killed [E] a man that day.
Some money owed, he double crossed he did [Am] not pay.
Exit wound, right through his head I heard [G] them say.
The blood didn't trickle [Am] to the floor.
The hitman settled at [E] this door.
You'll never see him [Am] anymore.
[A] [E]
[Am]
[G]
[Am] Time
[E] [C]
[A] [Am]
moves slow, life like a ticking [E] lullaby.
Sometimes I see, hear myself I start [Am] to cry.
I don't know if I'll ever see the [G] moonlit night.
Ever see a [Am] star so bright.
Ever see the broad [E] daylight.
Ever see my pretty [Am] wife.
[E]
[Am]
[G]
[Am]
[E]
[Am]
New evidence I hope will free me from this [E] jail.
The lawyer man said he will ask the judge [Am] for bail.
I hope and pray that everything does go [G] my way.
That the killer will [Am] soon fade.
That in this jail I won't have [E] to stay.
That I'll be a free man [Am] today.
No chance in hell, I heard my witness lives [E] no more.
No alibi to help me walk out [Am] my cell door.
The truth I pray, will surely see the [G] light of day.
Till they imprison I [Am] will stay.
I'll cry again and [E] then I'll pray.
[F] [E] And I won't be the one [Am] dying [E] there.
And I won't be the one dying [Am] [E] there.
And I won't be the one [Am] dying [E] there.
I won't be the one dying [Am]
there.
