[G]These four [Gmaj7]walls of [C/G]Farnworth
[G]Are closin' [Gmaj7]in on [C/G]me
[G]My final [Gmaj7]meal is [C/G]over
[G]They're gonna to [Gmaj7]set me [C/G]free
I can [C]feel the fires [G]burning
As the [C]devil guards my [G]door
I hit my [C]knees in search of [Am]Jesus
On a [C]cold [D]jailhouse [G]floor
Lord now I'm [G]sin[Gmaj7]gin'[C/G]
Get me out of [G]her[Gmaj7]e [C/G]
I see the [C]preacher's eyes
As my [G/B]daughter cries
When they [Am]strap me in this [D]chair
Lord I hope she [G]forgives me [Gmaj7] [C]
For [G]livin' my life [Gmaj7]this way[C]
[G]Tonight I'll ride the lightning
To my [D]final judgement [G]day[Gmaj7] [C/G]
[G]Every [Gmaj7]life owes a [C/G]death
[G]That's what the [Gmaj7]Bible [C/G]says
[G]I owe [Gmaj7]mine to this [C/G]state
[G]For shootin' that [Gmaj7]boy to [C/G]death
[C]A liquor store [G]attendant
He was [C]reachin' for his [G]gun
Now his [C]mama sits there [Am]smilin'
As the [C]boss yells, [D]Roll on [G]one
And now I'm [G]sing[Gmaj7]in'[C]
Get me out of [G]her[Gmaj7]e [C]
I see the [C]preacher's eyes
As my [G/B]daughter cries
When they [Am]strap me in this [D]chair
I hope she [G]forgives me [Gmaj7] [C]
For [G]leavin' [Gmaj7]her this [C]way
[G]Tonight I'll ride the lightining
To my [D]final resting [C]place
[Bm]A hungry blue-eyed [C]baby cryin'
Made me [G]rob that store
[Bm]And as that boy [C]lay there dyin'
I dropped my [G]pistol on the floor
Yeah I'd [C]take it all back
But there's nothin' [G/B]I can do
They've covered [Am]my face
And the order's [G/B]gone through
As the boss [C]yells, Roll on two
Now I'm [G]fly[Gmaj7]in' [C]
up and out of [G]her[Gmaj7]e [C]
I [C]close my eyes and [G/B]slowly rise
Let my [Am]body leave this [D]chair
Lord I hope you [G]forgive me [Gmaj7] [C]
For [G]livin' my [Gmaj7]life this [C]way
[G]Tonight I ride the lightning
To my [D]final resting [C]place
[G]These four [Gmaj7]walls of [C/G]Farnworth
[G]Are closin' [Gmaj7]in on [C/G]me [G]
