Merle Haggard - "Sing Me Back Home"

G D C G
The warden led a prisoner down the hallway to his doom
G D
I stood up to say good-bye like all the rest
G D C G
And I heard him tell the warden just before he reached my cell
G D G
'Let my guitar playing friend do my request.' (Let him...)

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

G D C G
I recall last Sunday morning a choir came in from town
G D
Just to sing a few old gospel song
G D C G
And I heard him tell the singers 'There's a song my mama sang.
G D G
Can I hear once before we move along?'

CHORUS
(G D C - G)
(Sing Me Back Home before I die )
