[Verse]
D
Well them four walls of Raiford, closing in on me

      A                             G         D
Doin' three to five hard labor, for armed robbery

 D
I had two years behind, but I could not wait the time

     A                                         G    D
Everytime I thought about it, well I died some more inside

D
And I had stripes on my back, memories that hurt

             A                              G       D
For the only time I seen sunshine is when I hit the dirt

D
Diggin' ditches for the chain gang, sleepin' in the cold

   A                                      G       D
Oh Lord please forgive me for I could not wait no more

D            G
And I comin' home to see you Jesus

                            D
Well it feels so close this time

                          A
Please take mercy on this soldier

                         D
From the Florida-Georgia line

           G
When they find me they must kill me

         A
Oh Jesus save my soul

                        G
I can't go back down to Raiford

                  D
I can't take that anymore

D
Well these last few years behind me

                      A
Oh Lord, have been so sad

G                                                   D
I fought proudly for my country when the times were bad

                                                  G
Now they say I'm guilty, when they find me I must die

A                                           D
Only me and Jesus know that I never stole a dime

D                                                     A
Well when Vietnam was over there was no work here for me

                                                  G
I had a pretty wife awaitin and two kids I had to feed

D                                                       A
Well I'm one of America's heroes and when they shoot me down

                                                  D
Won't fly old Glory proudly, put my medals in the ground

D            G
And I comin' home to see you Jesus

                            D
Well it feels so close this time

                          A
Please take mercy on this soldier

                         D
From the Florida-Georgia line

          G
When they find me they must kill me

          A
Oh Jesus save my soul

                        G
I can't go back down to Raiford

                     D
I can't take that anymore
