Merle Haggard - Sing me back home
These are the chords for the version of the song
he did with johnny cash
[G]The warden led a pri[D]soner down the h[C]allway to his d[G]oom
I stood up to say good-bye like all t[D]he rest
[G]And I heard him tell the wa[D]rden just be[C]fore he reached my [G]cell
Let my guitar playing fr[D]iend do my r[G]equest.
S[G]ing me back ho[D]me with a s[C]ong I used to h[G]ear
Make my old memories come a[D]live
[G]Take me a[D]way and t[C]urn back the y[G]ears
[G]Sing Me Back H[D]ome before I d[G]ie
I recall last Sunday morning a choir from 'cross the street
Came to sing a few old gospel songs
And I heard him tell the singers 'There's a song my mama sang.
Can I hear once before we move along?'
Sing me back home, the song my mama sang
Make my old memories come alive
Take me away and turn back the years
Sing Me Back Home before I die
Sing Me Back Home before I die
