[G] [A] The warden led [E] a prisoner
[D] down the hallway to [A] his doom
[D]
And I [A] stood up to say goodbye like [E] all the rest
[A] And I heard him tell [E] the warden [D] just before he [A] reached my cell
Let my guitar [E]-playing friend do [A] my request
Let him sing me [E] back all [D] the songs I [A] used to hear
Make my old memories come [E] alive
[A] And take me [E] away [D] and turn [A] back the years
Sing me [E] back home before [A] I die
I recall last [E] Sunday morning [D] a choir from off the [A] streets
Came in to sing a few old [E] gospel songs
And
[A] I heard him tell [E] the singers there's [D] a song [A] my mama sang
Could I hear it once [E] before you [A] move along
Let him sing me [E] back all [D] the songs I used [A] to hear
Make my old memories come [E] alive
[A] And take me [E] away [D] and turn [A] back the years
Sing me [E] back home before [A] I die
Sing [A] me [E] back home before [A] I die

[D] down the hallway to [A] his doom
[D]
And I [A] stood up to say goodbye like [E] all the rest
[A] And I heard him tell [E] the warden [D] just before he [A] reached my cell
Let my guitar [E]-playing friend do [A] my request
Let him sing me [E] back all [D] the songs I [A] used to hear
Make my old memories come [E] alive
[A] And take me [E] away [D] and turn [A] back the years
Sing me [E] back home before [A] I die
I recall last [E] Sunday morning [D] a choir from off the [A] streets
Came in to sing a few old [E] gospel songs
And
[A] I heard him tell [E] the singers there's [D] a song [A] my mama sang
Could I hear it once [E] before you [A] move along
Let him sing me [E] back all [D] the songs I used [A] to hear
Make my old memories come [E] alive
[A] And take me [E] away [D] and turn [A] back the years
Sing me [E] back home before [A] I die
Sing [A] me [E] back home before [A] I die
