[A]
The warden [E] led a prisoner [D] down the hallway to [A] his doom
And I stood up to say goodbye like [E] all the rest
And I [A] heard him tell the warden [D] just before he reached [A] my cell
Let my guitar [E] playing friend do my request
Let him sing me back home [D] the song I used [A] to hear
Make my old memories [E] come alive
Take me away [D] and turn back [A] the years
Sing me [E] back home before [A] I die
I recall last [E] Sunday morning [D] a choir from off the [A] street
Came in to sing a few old [E] gospel songs
[A] And I heard him tell [E] the singers [D] there's a song my mama [A]
sang
Could I hear it once [E] before you [A] move along
Won't you sing me [E] back home [D] the song I used to [A] hear
Make my old memories come [E] alive
[A] Take me [E]
away [D] and turn back [A] the years
Sing me [E] back home before [A] I die
Sing me [E] back home before [A] I die
The warden [E] led a prisoner [D] down the hallway to [A] his doom
And I stood up to say goodbye like [E] all the rest
And I [A] heard him tell the warden [D] just before he reached [A] my cell
Let my guitar [E] playing friend do my request
Let him sing me back home [D] the song I used [A] to hear
Make my old memories [E] come alive
Take me away [D] and turn back [A] the years
Sing me [E] back home before [A] I die
I recall last [E] Sunday morning [D] a choir from off the [A] street
Came in to sing a few old [E] gospel songs
[A] And I heard him tell [E] the singers [D] there's a song my mama [A]
sang
Could I hear it once [E] before you [A] move along
Won't you sing me [E] back home [D] the song I used to [A] hear
Make my old memories come [E] alive
[A] Take me [E]
away [D] and turn back [A] the years
Sing me [E] back home before [A] I die
Sing me [E] back home before [A] I die
