C                         G7                      C
I found him by the railroad track this morning
                       G7                   C       C7
I could see that he was nearly dead
F                                          Cdim C
I knelt down beside him and I   lis  - tened
Em6    D7                                  Fm7    Am6   G7
Just to hear the words the dying   fel   -   low   said
                     C                 G7               C
He said, they let me out of prison out in Briscoe
                                 G7                   C       C7
For ten long years I've paid for what I'd done
          F                                     Cdim  C
I was trying to get back to Louisi-  an-    a
Am6  G7                                               C        F        C
To     see my Rose and get to know my son

F                                                         C
Give my love to Rose, please won't you mister
G7                                          C             G7     C7
Take her all my money, tell her buy some pretty clothes
F                                                C
Tell my boy that daddy's so proud of him
        G7                                      C       F      C
And don't forget to give my love to Rose

                                     G7                     C
Won't you tell 'em I said thanks for waiting for me
                      G7                     C        C7
Tell my boy to help his mom at home
F                                         Cdim  C
Tell my Rose to try to find an - oth - er
Em6   D7                                     Fm7 Am6 G7
'Cause it ain't right that she should live    a  - lone
C                       G7                     C
Mister here's the bag with all my money
                          G7                   C       C7
It won't last them long the way it goes
F                                               Cdim    C
God bless you for finding me this morn - ing
Am6  G7                                      C        F      C
