Verse 1
(G major) Four gray walls surround me,
not (D major) a soul to see
(C major) Sitting here in this county tower,
(D major) lonesome as (G major) can be
Waiting trial on Monday,
(E minor) to pay for what I've done
I (C major) know they'll find me guilty (D major)
Hittin' (G major) runnin', hittin' and runnin',
hittin' and runnin',
hittin' and I was at a dance
one Friday night
The (D major) rain was comin' down
I left (C major) the dance about midnight
To drive (D major) back into town
(G major) The road was wet
I couldn't see a (E minor) fog lay on the ground
When (C major) a little boy jumped
in front of my car,
(D major) and there I run him (G major) down.
I pulled off of the highway,
my (D major) soul all sick with pain,
To see (C major) that little boy's figure,
face (D major) down in the rain. (G major)
(E minor) A chill of fear rushed (C major) over me,
at (D major) thought of what I'd done.
(E minor) What I've done
I (C major) knew it was an accident
But (D major) here lies someone's son
(G major) Hidden love, hidden love, hidden love
A picture flashed before my eyes
The (D major) outcome I could see
I'd had (C major) a couple of drinks or more
They'd put (D major) the blame on me (G major)
For it only took a glance to see
The (E minor) awful thing I'd done
But (C major) the only thought inside of me
was run (D major) , run, run
(G major) So I left him there, got in my car
and I (D major) raced back into town
Found (C major) myself the closest bar
and I tried (D major) to drink it down
(G major) But (D major) the (E minor) TV shows, the (C major) radios,
the (D major) people I passed (E minor) by
I kept (C major) asking this one question,
what (D major) kind of man was I? (G major)
Weeks went by
and every night was (D major) sleepless misery
I'd (C major) close my eyes
and that little boy is all (D major) that I could see (G major)
So the one thing left to face now
was (E minor) turning myself in
And (C major) face the only outcome
of (D major) observing one to (G major) ten
But I've (E minor) paid a thousand times (C major) or more
So (D major) I just hope that time (E minor)
Will (C major) take away this memory
And ease (D major) my troubled mind (G major)
Stay with love, stay with love,
stay with love, stay with love...
