Chord/Tab song: In the Gravel Yard

[Chorus]
[G]In the gravel yard, with a n[C]umber for my na[G]me
[G]Making little rocks out of b[D]ig rocks all da[G]y
[G]Oh, the work is mighty hard [C]in the gravel yar[G]d
[G]I'll never be a fre[D]e man, so they sa[G]y.

[Verse 1]
[G]Warden hear my plea, [C]listen now to m[G]e
[G]I killed a man that I ca[D]ught with my wi[G]fe
[G]You'd probably do the same, [C]so why am I to bla[G]me
[G]Sentenced to the re[D]st of my lif[G]e

[Chorus]
[G]In the gravel yard, with a n[C]umber for my na[G]me
[G]Making little rocks out of b[D]ig rocks all da[G]y
[G]Oh, the work is mighty hard [C]in the gravel yar[G]d
[G]I'll never be a fre[D]e man, so they sa[G]y.

[Verse 2]
[G]In the driven rain with a [C]ball and chai[G]n
[G]My hammer rings a low and [D]mournful soun[G]d
[G]I sing a little song for the on[C]e who done me wro[G]ng
[G]She's lyin' in the[D] cold, cold [G]ground

[Chorus]
[G]In the gravel yard, with a n[C]umber for my na[G]me
[G]Making little rocks out of b[D]ig rocks all da[G]y
[G]Oh, the work is mighty hard [C]in the gravel yar[G]d
[G]I'll never be a fre[D]e man, so they sa[G]y.
