As recorded by Conway Twitty (From the 1968 Album HERE'S CONWAY TWITTY) [Intro] A [Verse 1]
A                E                 D          A
The warden led a prisoner down the hallway to his doom

                                           E7
And I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest

      A                  E             D                  A
And I heard him tell the warden just before he reached my cell

                       E              A
'Let my guitar playing friend do my request'
[Chorus]
A                     E        D              A
'Let him sing me back home the song I used to hear

                           E
Make my old memories come alive

A        E       D             A
Take me away and turn back the years

             E7            A
Sing me back home before I die'
[Lap Steel Solo] A E A [Verse 2]
A                    E         D                 A
I recall last Sunday morning a choir from of the street

                              E7
Came to sing a few old gospel songs

      A                  E                   D            A
And I heard him tell the singers, 'There's a song my mama sang

                    E              A
Could I hear once before you move along?'
[Chorus]
A                      E        D              A
Won't you sing me back home the song I used to hear

                           A
Make my old memories come alive

A        E       D             A
Take me away and turn back the years

             E7            A
Sing me back home before I die

             E7            A
Sing me back home before I die"
