Sing Me Back Home
Merle Haggard
A E D A
The warden led a prisoner down the hallway to his doom
A E
I stood up to say good-bye like all the rest
A E D A
And I heard him tell the warden just before he reached my cell
A E A
‘Let my guitar playing friend do my request.’ (Let him…)
CHORUS:
A E D A
Sing me back home with a song I used to hear
A E
Make my old memories come alive
A E D A
Take me away and turn back the years
A E A
Sing Me Back Home before I die
I recall last Sunday morning a choir came in from town
Just to sing a few old gospel song
And I heard him tell the singers ‘There’s a song my mama sang.
Can I hear once before we move along?’
CHORUS
[A E D – A]
[Sing Me Back Home before I die ]
