Sing Me Back Home / Branded Man chords and lyrics - MERLE HAGGARD

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]The warden led a [D]prisoner
down the [C]hallway to his [G]doom
And I stood up to say goodbye
while I called [D]rest
And I [G]heard him tell the [D]warden
just be[C]fore he reached my [G]cell
Let my guitar playing [D]friend
do my re[G]quest[C]
[G]Let him sing me back hom[D]e
the [C]song I used to [G]hear
Make my old memories come [D]alive
[G]Take me [D]away and [C]turn back the [G]years
Sing me back [D]home before I [G]die
Sing me back [D]home before I [G]die[F][Bb][F]
[C]I'd [F]like to hold my head up
And be [Bb]proud of who I [F]am
But they won't let my
secrets go un[C]told[G][C]
I [F]paid the debt I owed them
But [Bb]they're still not [F]satisfied
Now I'm a branded man
[C]out in the col[F]d
When they let me out of prison
I [Bb]held my head up [F]high
Determined I would arise above the [C]chain[G]
[C]But no mat[F]ter where I travel
The [Bb]black mark follows [F]me
And I'm branded with a
[C]number on my [F]name
I'd like to hold my head up
and be [Bb]proud of who I [F]am
But they won't let my secret go un[C]told
[G]I'v[C]e m[G]et th[F]e Jedi Order,
but [Bb]they're still not satisfied
[F]Now I'm a branded man
[C]out in the cold

[Outro 1]
