[Verse 1]
Am Oh Lord, oh Lord, what have I done? Am I've fallen in love with a man on the run Am Oh Lord, oh Lord, I'm begging you please Dm Am Don't take that sinner from me Dm Am Oh, don't take that sinner from me
[Verse 2]
Am Oh Lord, oh Lord, what do I do? Am I've fallen for someone who's nothing like you Am He's raised on the edge of the devil's backbone Dm Am Oh, I just want to take him home Dm Am Oh, I just want to take him home
[Chorus]
Am G Dm Am Oooooooooooh Am G Dm Am Oooooooooooh
[Verse 3]
Am Oh Lord, oh Lord, he's somewhere between Am A hangman's knot, and three mouths to feed Am There wasn't a wrong or a right he could choose Dm Am He did what he had to do Dm Am Oh, he did what he had to do
[Chorus]
Am G Dm Am Oooooooooooh Am G Dm Am Oooooooooooh
[Bridge]
Am G Give me the burden, give me the blame Dm F I'll shoulder the load, and I'll swallow the shame Am G Give me the burden, give me the blame Dm F Am How many, how many Hail Mary's is it gonna take?
[Verse 4]
Am Don't care if he's guilty, don't care if he's not Am He's good and he's bad, and he's all that I've got Am Oh Lord, oh Lord, I'm begging you please Dm Am Don't take that sinner from me Dm Am Oh, don't take that sinner from me
