Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[G][D][C]

[Verse 1]
[C]Well them [G]four
walls were rafting
Closing in on me
Doing [D]three to five hard labor
For [C]armed robbery
[G]I had two years behind me
But I could not wait the time
Every [D]time I thought about it,
well, I [C]died some more in[G]side
I had stripes on my back,
memories that hurt
For the [D]only time that I'd seen sunshine
was [C]when I went to [G]work
Diggin' the ditches for
the chain gang,
sleepin' in the hole
[D]Lord, please forgive me for
I [C]could not wait for [G]old
And I'm comin' [C]home to see you,
Jesus
Well, it [G]feels so close this time
Please take [D]mercy on a soldier
From the [C]Florida -Georgia [G]line
When they [C]find me, they must kill me
Oh [G]Je sus, save my soul
I can't [D]go back down the river
I can't [C]take that any
[G]more[D][C][G]
[D][C][G]
Well, these last few years behind me,
oh Lord, have been so sad
I fought [D]proudly for my country
[C]when the times were bad
[G]Now they say that I am guilty,
when they find me I must die
Only [D]me and Jesus know
that I nev[C]er stole a [G]dime
Well, when Vietnam was over,
there was no work here for me
I had a [D]pretty wife, a widow,
and two kid[C]s I had to feed
[G]Well, I'm one of America's heroes,
when they shoot me down
Won't [D]you fly, oh, glory, proudly
Put my [C]medals in the [G]ground
I'm coming [C]home to see Jesus
Will it [G]feel so close this time?
Please take [D]mercy on a soldier
From the [C]Florida -Georgia line
[G]When the[C]y find me, they must kill me
Oh, [G]Jesus, save my soul
I can't [D]go back down the river,
I can't [C]take that anymore.

[Outro 1]
