[Intro]
D A7 D
[Verse 1]
D A7 G D The warden led a prisoner down the hallway to his doom D A7 And I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest D A7 G D And I heard him tell the warden just before he reached my cell D A7 D "Let my guitar-playing friend do my request"
[Chorus]
D A7 G D "Let him sing me back home, the song I used to hear D A7 Make my old memories come alive D A7 G D Take me away and turn back the years D A7 D Sing me back home before I die"
[Interlude]
D A7 D
[Verse 2]
D A7 G D I recall last Sunday morning, a choir from off the street D A7 Came in to sing a few old gospel songs D A7 G D And I heard him tell the singers, "There's a song my mama sang D A7 D Could I hear it once before you move along?"
[Chorus]
D A7 G D "Won't you sing me back home, the song I used to hear? D A7 Make my old memories come alive D A7 G D Take me away and turn back the years D A7 D Sing me back home before I die D A7 D Won't you sing me back home before I die?"
