Sing Me Back Home

G  D  C  G

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

[Chorus]
        G            D           
Let him sing me back home to the 
C               G
songs I used to hear
G                          D
Make my old memories come alive

[Verse]
  G                   D       
I remember one Sunday morning a 
   C                    G
choir from off of the streets
     G                        
They came by to sing a few old 
        D
gospel songs
      G                   D    
And I heard him tell the singers 
             C             G
'There's a song my mammy sang.
          G            D       
Won't you sing it once before we 
       G
move along?

[Chorus]
              G            D   
Oh, won't you sing me back home? 
           C               G
With the songs I used to hear
G                         D
Make my old memories come alive
        G       D          C     
Please, take me away and turn 
      G
back the years
G            D             G
Sing me back home before I die
              G            D  
Oh, won't you sing me back home 
           G
before I die?
