Richard Shindell - Sing Me Back Home


  G+G      D MajorD         C majorC       G+G
The warden led a prisoner down the hallway to his doom
                   D MajorD
I got up to say good-bye like all the rest
   G+G         D MajorD       C majorC         G+G
And I heard him tell the warden just before he reached my cell
            D MajorD       G+G
"Let my guitar playing friend do my request"


CHORUS:
           D MajorD      C majorC       G+G
Let him sing me back home with a song I used to hear
              D MajorD
Make my old memories come alive
G+G    D MajorD    C majorC       G+G
Take me away and turn back the years
       D MajorD       G+G
Sing Me Back Home before I die

           D MajorD     C majorC          G+G
I recall last Sunday morning, a choir from along the street
                 D MajorD
Came in to sing a few old gospel songs
   G+G         D MajorD          C majorC      G+G
And I heard him tell the singers, "There's a song my mama sang.
             D MajorD       G+G
Could you sing it once before we move along?"


CHORUS:
       D MajorD      C majorC       G+G
Sing me back home with a song I used to hear
              D MajorD
Make my old memories come alive
G+G    D MajorD    C majorC       G+G
Take me away and turn back the years
       D MajorD       G+G
Sing Me Back Home before I die


INSTRUMENTAL: (same as Chorus)


CHORUS:
            D MajorD      C majorC       G+G
Won't you sing me back home with a song I used to hear
              D MajorD
Make my old memories come alive
G+G    D MajorD    C majorC       G+G
Take me away and turn back the years
       D MajorD       G+G
Sing Me Back Home before I die
       D MajorD       C majorC  G+G
Sing Me Back Home before I die___
