Barton Hollow Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A]

[Verse 1]
[A]I'm a dead man walking here
But that's the least of all my fears

[Verse 2]
Ooh, underneath the water
[A]It's not Alabama clay
That gives my trembling hands away

[Verse 3]
Please forgive me father
[A]Ain't going back to Barton Hollow
Devil gonna follow me e'er I go
Won't do me no good [Am]washing in the river
[A]Can't no preacher man save my [Am]soul[A]

[Verse 4]
[A]Did that full moon force my hand?
Or that unmarked hundred grand?
Ooh, underneath the water

[Verse 5]
Please forgive me father
[F]Miles and miles in my bare feet
[A]Still can't lay [Am]me down to sleep
[F]If I die before I wake
[E]I know the [C]Lord [E]my soul
won't [A]take[Am][A][Am]

[Verse 6]
[A]I'm a dead man walking
I'm a dead man walking
[Am]Keep walking

[Verse 7]
and [G]running
and [D]running [Am]for miles
Keep walking and [A]running
and [D]running for [Am]miles
Keep [A]walking and [G]running and
[D]running [F]for [E]mil[Am]es[E][A]
Ain't going back to [Am]Barton Hollow

[Verse 8]
[Am]
Devil gonna follow me e'er I go
Won't do me no [Am]good washing in the river
Can't no preacher man save my soul
