Sing Me Back Home [C] - Merle Haggard

Sing Me Back Home - Merle Haggard

[Verse 1]
    C             G                  F               C
The  warden led a  prisoner down the  hallway to his  doom
        C                               G
I stood  up to say goodbye like all the  rest
      C                   G              F                  C
And I  heard him tell the  warden just before he reached my  cell
        C               G               C
'Let my  guitar playing  friend do my request.' (Let him...)
 
 
|Chorus]
|C             G            F               C
| Sing me back  home with a  song I used to  hear
|C                          G
| Make my old memories come  alive
|C         G       F              C
| Take me away and  turn back the  years
|C             G              C
| Sing me back  home before I  die
 
 
[Verse 2]
  C               G             F                   C
I  recall last Sunday morning a  choir from off the  street
     C                            G
Came  in to sing a few old gospel  songs
      C                   G                   F             C
And I  heard him tell the  singers 'There's a  song my mama  sang.
        C               G              C
Could I  hear it once before you move along?' (Won't you...)
 
 
|[Chorus]
|C             G            F               C
| Sing me back  home with a  song I used to  hear
|C                          G
| Make my old memories come  alive
|C         G       F              C
| Take me away and  turn back the  years
|C             G              C
| Sing me back  home before I  die
