LIFE TO GO
[D]I've got a sad sad story f[A]riends that I don't like[G] to tell,[D]
[D] I had a wife and family [A]when they locked me in a [G]cell,[D]
[G] I've been in here eightee[A]n years, a long, long ti[G]me I know,[D]
[D] But time don't mean a[A] thing to me, 'caus[G]e I've got life to go.[D]
[D]Well I went one night where the [A]lights wer[G]e bright just to see what I could s[D]ee,
[D]I met up with an old frien[A]d who just th[G]ought the world of me,[D]
[G] Well he bought me drinks and took me[A] to every honky[G] tonk in town,[D]
[D]Words were said, and now h[A]e's dead, I just had to [G]bring him down.[D]
[D]Well it's been a long long time now,[A] since I've[G] heard from my wife,[D]
[D]I know I'd be there with her[A] yet if I hadn't used t[G]hat knife,[D]
[G] Well I bet that little girl o[A]f mine don't real[G]ize or know,[D]
[D] Her Daddies's been here eighteen yea[A]rs, and still[G] got life to go.[D]
[D]Well I'll bet there ain't a man outs[A]ide who's spe[G]nt this long in jail.[D]
[D] I'll be inside this pris[A]on 'til my body's [G]just a shell.[D]
[G] No, I'm not free to go and s[A]ee the one's that I l[G]ove so.[D]
[D]I've been in here eightee[A]n years and still have life[G] to go[D]
[G] I still have life to go ([D]repeat and fade)
