[Primera Parte]

             Bb                    
        The preacher talked with me
          Cm
 and he smiled
                 F                 
        Said to come and walk with 
              Bb
me, come and walk one more mile
                (Bb)             
        Now for once in your life 
          Cm
you're alone
                 F
        But you ain't got a dime
                    G
        There's no time for the 
phone

                   C         
        I've just gotta get a 
            Dm
message to you
             F    G       C
        Hold on,     hold on
                  C              
        One more hour and my life 
           Dm
will be through
             F    G       C    F
        Hold on,     hold on

[Estribillo]

         Bb                    Cm
        I told him I'm in no hurry
         F                       
        But if I broke her heart, 
        Bb
then won't you tell her I'm sorry

        (Bb)                       
        And for once in my life I'm
Cm
 alone
              F
        And I gotta let her know
              G
        Just in time before I go

        Hold on,     hold on
                  C              
        One more hour and my life

[Tercera Parte]

         Bb                     
        Well, I laughed but that 
       Cm
didn't hurt
         F                         
        And it's only her love that
      Bb
 keeps me wearing this dirt
        (Bb)                    
        Now I'm crying, but deep 
   Cm
down inside
             F
        Well, I did it to him
             G
        Now it's my turn to die
