David Allan Coe - Pledging My Love Chords

Pledging My Love

By David Allen Coe


(Spoken by David)

It was in the 1950's and I was in the ah boy's industrial school in Lancaster, Ohio.
My favorite singer at the time was ....Johnny Ace. One night I came in ah from my work 
assignment and the guard told me that Johnny Ace was dead. He'd taken a gun and killed himself.
And on the table...on the table beside him they found ah a tape of a song that he had written moments 
before he died. I've always wanted to sing that song but I was never able to and ah I think that 
after all these years that I'd like to try to sing it for you Johnny.

This is my last letter
End of song
My life is so miserable
I can't go on.
