    A              E
The warden led the prisoner

         D              A    Asus4  A  Asus2  A
Down the hallway to his doom

   A                  Asus4            E    B7    E7
I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest

      A                  E
And I heard him tell the warden

       D                    A    Asus4  A  Asus2  A
Just before they reached my cell

          A           E7               A      A    E
Let my guitar playin' friend sing my request
[Chorus]
A            E      D              A    Asus4  A  Asus2  A
Sing me back home a song I used to hear

A           A              E    B7    E7
Make my old memories come alive

A        E       D             A    Asus4  A  Asus2  A
Sing me away and turn back the year

A            E      E7     A    Asus4  A  Asus2  A
Sing me back home before I die
[Verse 2]
    A                E
I recall last Sunday morning

         D                   A    Asus4  A  Asus2  A
When the choir from off the street

     A            Asus4          E    B7    E7
Came in to sing a few old gospel songs

      A                  E
And I heard him tell the singers

          D              A    Asus4  A  Asus2  A
There's a song my mother sang

        A              E        E7     A      A    E
Could I hear it once before you travel on
[Chorus]
A            E      D              A    Asus4  A  Asus2  A
Sing me back home a song I used to hear

A           A              E    B7     E7
Make my old memories come alive, come alive

A        E       D             A    Asus4  A  Asus2  A
Sing me away and turn back the year

A            E      E7     A    Asus4  A  Asus2  A      A      E
Sing me back home before I die
