[Intro]
Am Em Am C
[Verse 1]
Am Em Carolina Mountain, Carolina Wind Am C My first day on the outside of that Carolina pen D D Fresh air on my face, I finally see blue skies Em Am First time in twenty years without bars and razor wire
[Pre-chorus]
F C Call me a felon, mock the tattoos on my skin Em Am But if had the choice to make, I'd do twenty years again
[Chorus]
G D Those Carter boys came calling, when I was working overnight Em C They broke in and they took turns, then they murdered my sweet wife G D But I caught up with both of them down by the railroad tracks Em C I took my time and I took their lives, they ain't never coming back G D Then I called the cops with my address and I laid down my gun Em C Am Yeah, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do to make sure justice is done
G E C Am
[Verse 2]
Am Em Well, I gave a full confession 'cause I had nothing more to hide Am C And nothing left to live for, I'm already dead inside D Am Yeah, they gave me twenty years to think about that night Em C But not a day slips away when I don't think about my wife
[Chorus]
G D Those Carter boys came calling, when I was working overnight Em C They broke in and they took turns, then they murdered my sweet wife G D But I caught up with both of them down by the railroad tracks Em C I took my time and I took their lives, they ain't never coming back G D Then I called the cops with my address and I laid down my gun Em C Am Yeah, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do to make sure justice is done Em C Am Em Yeah, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do, to make sure... Justice is done
