[Verse 1]
A E D A The warden who led a prisoner down the hallway to his doom A E And I got up to say, goodbye like all the rest E A E D A When I heard him tell the warden just before they reached my cell A E A Let my guitar playing friend do my request
[Chorus]
A E D A Let him sing me back home with a song I used to hear A E Make my old memories come alive A E D A And gake me away and turn back the years A E A Sing me back home before I die

[Verse 2]
A E D A I remember last Sunday evening, a choir from off the streets A E They came in to sing a few old gospel songs E A D D A And I heard him ask the singers, there's a song my mama sang A E A Won't you sing it once before you move along?
[Chorus]
E A E D Won't you sing me back home with a song I used to hear? A E Make my old memories come alive E A E D A And take me away and turn back the years A E A Sing me back home before I die E A E D D A won't you sing me back home before I die?
