hang your head down low Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Dm]

[Verse 1]
Write me a letter, [Dm]baby,
send it by the mail
I'm in the care of the Fort Worth jail
I was out movin' on a
blood moon night
12 just hit [Am]me with them flashin' lights

[Verse 2]
Come [G]on, babe
Hang your head [Dm]down low
[Am]Well, I'm on my way to heaven
[G]Just please let me go
[Dm][A][Am]

[Verse 3]
[Dm]
Late in the evenin' when
that train rolls by
Right out the window, I can hear it cry
Engineer highballin' all through the night
Ol' Texas Eagle on that Mopac line

[Verse 4]
Come on, [G]babe
Hang your head [Dm]down low
Well, [Am]I'm on my way to h[G]eaven
Just please let me [Dm]go
[Am]

[Verse 5]
[Dm]
I hear the sirens howlin' in my mind
And I see it every time I close my eyes
My heart is beatin' like a timpani drum
I'm thinkin' to myself, "Lord,
what have I done?"

[Verse 6]
[G]Come on, babe
Hang your head down [Dm]low
Well, I'm [Am]on my way to heaven
[G]Just please let me go

[Interlude 1]
[Dm][Am][Dm]
[G][Dm]
[Am][A][Am][G][Dm]

[Verse 7]
Tell my mama that [Dm]I ain't comin' home
Get that public defendant
on the telephone
Take out the money from
that old shoebox
You'll find the key [Am]behind
the cuckoo clock

[Verse 8]
[G]Come on, babe
Hang your head [Dm]down low
Well, [Am]I'm on my way to heaven
[G]Judge, please let me [Dm]go[Am]
[Dm]Go on, boy
