Sing Me Back Home

Sing Me Back Home
By Merle Haggard
 
G                D7          
The warden led a prisoner 
         C              G     
Down the hallway to his doom
                                       D7     
I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest
  G                  D7        
I heard him tell the warden 
     C                    G     
Just before he reached my cell
                      D7           G        
Let my guitar playing friend do my request
 
                     D7      
Let him sing me back home 
         C               G     
With the songs I used to hear
                          D7      
Make my old memories come alive
G       D7       C             G      
Take me away and turn back the years
                     D7            G    
Let him sing me back home before I die
 
                     D7         
I recall last Sunday morning 
  C                  G       
A choir came off the street
                                 D7      
Came in to sing a few old gospel songs
  G                  D7        
I heard him tell the singers
          C             G     
There's a song my mamma sang
                     D7              G      
Could I hear it once before you move along
 
Repeat #1
