The warden led the prisoner down the hallway to his doom
                    BB
I stood up to say good-bye like all the rest
   E MajorE         BB       A augmentedA         E MajorE

'Let my guitar playing friend do my request'

Chorus:
    E MajorE      BB      A augmentedA       E MajorE
Let him sing me back home with a song I used to hear

Make my old memories come alive
E MajorE    BB    A augmentedA       E MajorE
Take me away and turn back the years
       BB       E MajorE
Sing me back home before I die

I recall last Sunday morning, a choir from off the street

Could I hear it once be-fore you move a-long?'
