Prison On Route 4 Chords

(ver. 1)
Iron And Wine
"(1)
First try at a chords/tabs. Please help me correct any mistakes. I watched him play this 

	   A 		    D
There’s a prison on route 41
	    A                         E
Home to my father, first cousin, and son
      A		       D
And I visit every weekend
	    A              E             A
Not with my body but with prayers that I send


	A		   D
I’ve a reason for my absentee
		A	            E
And no lack of love for my dear family
	A		        D
But my savior is not Christ the Lord
                 A            E            A
But one named Virginia whom I live my life for


E     	                A
And if I don’t mind to her
    D		 A	       E
I’d rot in that prison for sure
		     A
Yeah, she’d toss me aside
        D      	A       E
And I’d surely wait to die


    A                    D
By decree, law of the land
	     A			        E
So unlike my uncle, grandpa, and great aunt
   	 A                      D
Whom I’d most likely see every day
		A		 E          A
If not for the righteous ????? Virginia’s way


	  A 		    D
There’s a prison on route 41
	    A                        E
Home to my mother, stepbrother, and son
	 A		           D
And I’d tear down that jail by myself
	       A	      E          A
If not for Virginia who made me someone else


E               A
And I owe it to her
    D		 A	     E
I’d rot in that prison for sure
	              A
Yeah, she’d toss me aside
     D		 A      E
And show me the way to die

	A		    D
By the precepts of her purity
	       A			E
So unlike the habits of my whole family
 	A			 D
Whom I only see down on my knees
	      A                E          A
In prayer by Virginia whom I live for to please
