[D] [Eb]
[Bb] Well [Eb]
them four walls of raffle [C] closing in on me
Doing three to five hard labor for [Cm] armed [Eb] robbery
I had two years behind me [Bb] but I could not wait the time
Every time I thought about it well [G] I'd died some more inside
And I had stripes on my back and memories that hurt
[Eb] Oh the [Bb] only time I seen [Ab] sunshine is when [Ebm] I went [Eb] to work
Digging ditches for the chain gang, sleeping in the hole
Oh [Bb] Lord please forgive me [Ab] for I could not wait to roll
[Ebm] And I'm [Ab] coming home to see you Jesus, well it [Eb] feels so close this time
Please take [Bb] mercy on a soldier [Eb] from the Florida Georgia line
When [Ab] they find me they must kill me, [Eb] oh Jesus save my soul
I [C] can't go back down to Rafer, [Ab] I can't [Eb] take that anymore

[Eb]
Well these last few years behind me, oh Lord it's been [Ab] so sad
I fought proudly for my country [Ab] when the times [Eb] were bad
[Ab] [Eb] Now they say I'm guilty, [C] when they find me I must die
Only me and Jesus know that I never [Eb] stole a dime
Well [F] when Vietnam was over there was no work [Eb] here for me
I had a [Bb] pretty wife waiting and two [Ab] kids I had [Eb] to feed
Well I'm one of America's heroes and when they [Cm] shoot me down
Won't you fly oh glory proudly, [Ab] put my [Eb] medals in the ground
[Eb] [F]
[Eb] [C]
[Eb] And I'm coming [Ab] home to see [Cm] you Jesus, well it feels so close this time
Please [Bb] take mercy on a soldier from the Florida Georgia line
When they [Ab] find me they must kill me, [F] oh Jesus save my soul
I can't [C] go back down to Rafer, I can't take [Eb] that anymore
