Well, they're building a gallows outside my cell, and I've got 25 [Eb]
minutes to go.
And the whole [C] town's waiting just to hear me yell, I got 24 minutes [Ab] to go.
Well, they gave me some beans for my last meal, but 23 minutes to [Eb] go.
But nobody asked me how I feel, I got 22 minutes [Ab] to go.
Well, I said, for the governor and the whole darn bunch, but 21 minutes [Eb] to go.
And I called up the mayor, but he's out to lunch, I got 20 more [Ab] minutes to go.
Then the sheriff said, boy, I'm gonna watch you die with 19 minutes [Eb] to go.
So I laughed in his face and I spit in his eye with 18 minutes [Ab] to go.
[F]
Now here comes the preacher for to save my soul with 13 minutes [C] to go.
And he's talking about burning, but I'm so cold, 12 more [F] minutes to go.
Well, they're testing the trough and it chills my spine, 11 more minutes [C] to go.
And the trough and the roof, oh, they work just fine, 10 more minutes [F] to go.
Well, I'm waiting for the pardon that'll set me free, but nine more minutes [C] to go.
But this ain't the movie, so forget about me, eight more minutes [F] to go.
[Ab]
With my feet on the trough and my head in the news, five more [Eb] minutes to go.
Won't somebody come and cut me loose, seven [D] more minutes [Ab] to go.
I can see the mountains, I can see the sky, but three more minutes [Eb] to go.
And it's too darn pretty for a man to want to die, two more [Ab] minutes to go.
I can see the buzzards, I can hear the crows, one more minute [Eb] to go.
And now I'm swinging and here I go.
[B] [N]
Thank you very much.
I want to do another song here featuring Harmonica.
And then I want to get the stool there and sit down and do some slow ballad type songs
that we wanted to do for this album and especially for you.
What did I do with my list over there?
My idiot sheet.
[G] Roll it to the floor, Dennis.
How you doing, Shirley?
