[Verse 1]
        G             Em
Well, I used to be an angel
  G                  Em
I guess my wings got torn
G            Fadd9       C            G
I ain't seen nothing but bad luck and trouble
                D7        Em    C
Ever since that I've been born, ah
     G          D7        G

        G              Em
Well, I used to have a best friend
  G                 Em
A girl for to be my bride
  G        Fadd9        C         G
I had everything that a man could want
                 D7   Em   C

          G               Em
Yeah, but I came home one evening
    G                Em
The moon was hanging high
  G              Fadd9            C             G
I felt something wrong, something must be going on
                D7        Em  C
And a black cat passed me by, yeah
  G         D7        G
A black cat passed me by

[Verse 4]
  G                    Em
I peeked on through my keyhole
G                       Em
 Ah, tell me what did I see?
  G      Fadd9      C    G
I saw my gal and my best friend
              D7          Em  C
In a bed that belonged to me, oh
  G          D7        G

     G                   Em
So I went and grabbed my shotgun
    G                  Em
You know how the story goes
             G            Fadd9          C              G
You're gonna find me on a chain, digging ditches in the rain
                     D7     Em       C
I'll be wearing them county clothes, Lord
        G            D7     G
I'll be wearing them county clothes

[Verse 6]
          G             Em
Well, the jury found me guilty
  G                Em
I heard that gavel sound
        G    Fadd9             C         G
And the only friend who'd have thrown my bail
             D7   Em     C
Was six feet underground
           G        D7   G
Ah, he was six feet underground

G                      Em
 Ain't nothing to call mine
      G        Fadd9 C            G
Gonna spend my days, wasting all away
              D7     Em    C
In cell block number nine, ah

Cell block number nine
