By Steve Earle
Intro Chords:
[E] [A] [E] [B]
[E]The warden said he'd mail my letter[A]
The [E]chaplain's waitin' by the [B]door
[E]Tonight we'll cross the yard to[A]gether
[E]Then they can't hurt me [B]anymore
Chorus:
Cause [E]I am [B7]going over [C#m]yonder[G#m]
[A]Where no [E]ghost can follow [B]me
[E]There's another place be[A]yond here
[E]Where I'll be free,[B] I believe
Give my radio to Johnson
Thibodeaux can have my fan
Just send my Bible home to Mama
Call her every now and then
Chorus
I suppose I got it comin'
I can't ever pay enough
All my rippin' and a-runnin'
I hurt everyone I loved
The world'll turn around without me
The sun'll come up in the east
Shinin' down on all of them that hate me
I hope my goin' brings 'em peace
Chorus
