Merle Haggard - Sing Me Back Home Chords

Capo 2

E Harp intro 

[Verse]
    D            A                 G              D
The warden led a prisoner down the hallway to his doom
D                                       A
I stood up to say good-bye like all the rest
      D                  A              G                 D
And I heard him tell the warden just before he reached my cell
D                      A               D
'Let my guitar playing friend do my request.' (Let him...)


[Chorus]

D            A           G              D
Sing me back home with a song I used to hear
D                          A
Make my old memories come alive
D        A       G             D
Take me away and turn back the years
D            A             D
Sing Me Back Home before I die


[Verse]
    D            A                 G              D
I recall last Sunday morning a choir from up the street
D                             A
Came in to sing a few gospel songs
      D                A             G                 D
And I heard him tell the singers 'There's a song my mama sang.
D                A               D
Can I hear once before we move along?'


[Chorus]

D            A             G - D
 Sing Me Back Home before I die
