By: Brandon Heath
~This is my first tab ever so I'm open to any suggestions or changes! God Bless! :)
Intro: G, A, F#m, G, G, A, D
Blue Mountain[G] Penitentiary
Been housing [A]sin for centuries
I [F#m]am just a number, not a name[G]
And you wear a g[G]un and hold the keys
But yo[A]u've always been good to me
Only s[F#m]ee the man and not the shame[G]
And I haven't[G] seen my wife in years
Last me[A]mory is her in tears
Won[F#m]der if she'll even come tonight[G]
There's something[G] that she doesn't know
She needs [A]to hear before I go
[F#m]Could you tell her I'm alright[G]
Chorus:
Would you[G] pray with me[A]
[F#m]Touch the hand of a sinner[G]
Would yo[G]u stay with me[A]
[F#m]And be my guest for dinner[G]
[G] [A] [F#m] [G] [G] [A] [D]
Looks like [G]this is my dyin' day
They tell [A]me that's the only way
I'll e[F#m]ver see the other side again[G]
But they [G]don't know who's been in here
Every da[A]y the last three years
Yes, [F#m]sir, I'm the one who let Him in[G]
And He comes an[G]d sits down in my chair
Weepi[A]ng, breathing this same air
[F#m]And opens up His hands[G]
Reminds me t[G]hat He walked this mile
Suffe[A]red for a little while
[F#m]And made me an innocent man[G]
Chorus 2:
Would you[G] pray with me[A]
[F#m]Touch the hand of a sinner[G]
Would yo[G]u stay with me[A]
[F#m]And be my guest for dinner[G]
Chorus 3:
Would you[G] pray with me[A]
[F#m]Touch the hand of a sinner[G]
Would yo[G]u stay with me[A]
[F#m]And be my guest for dinner[G]
Outro:
G, A, F#m, G (X4)
