Em                                 E
I woke up on a cement floor this mornin,

    Em                                  E
My head felt like somebody been walkin' on it,

  A
Don't know how I got here,

         E
Don't remember nothin' at all,

    F#
But if I done all the things that they say I did,

        B
Well I sure musta had a ball
CHORUS:
          A
Cause in 30 more days
I'm goin back home,
    E
To see that gal of mine,

         B
But the Wichita Jail

      B
Is a long long way

                        Dbm
From the Tupelo County line,

               B
I gotta do my time
VERSE:
        Em
Well I aint got a cent of the money I had

    E
I spent it

  Em                                  E
Shirts tore, my shoes got a big hole in it,

           A
There's a king size knot on the side of my head

       E
And I got one big black eye

      F#
But brother if you think I look bad,

             B
You oughtta see that other guy
CHORUS:
          A
Cause in 30 more days
I'm goin back home,
    E
To see that gal of mine,

         B
But the Wichita Jail

      B
Is a long long way

                        Dbm
From the Tupelo County line,

               B
I gotta do my time
INSTRUMENTAL: E A B E A E F# B A E B B Dbm B VERSE:
           Em                                       E
Well this nine pound hammer feels like it weighs a ton

       Em                                             E
Makin lil ones outta big ones in this red hot Kansas sun

        A
I just hope I can make it 30 more days

     E
And get out of this mess I'm in,

    F#
And if I ever get back to Mississippi

   B
I aint ever gonna leave again
CHORUS:
          A
Cause in 30 more days
I'm goin back home,
    E
To see that gal of mine,

         B
But the Wichita Jail

      B
Is a long long way

                        Dbm
From the Tupelo County line,
OUTRO:
               B
I gotta do my time

               Dbm
I gotta do my time

               B
I gotta do my time
