Verse 1
(D major) (G major) Just a word before I (C major) leave you,
before (G major) I bid my last (D major) goodbye
How I trust (G major) to meet my (C major) savior
and my loved (D major) ones in the sky (G major)
I strived for (C major) murder in Dawson County (G major)
In this noted Lone Star (D major) State
And was framed (G major) from every (C major) angle
So (D major) the jury signed my fate (G major)
Forced to trial without a (C major) lawyer
Not allowed (G major) to take a stand (D major)
Oh, it's true, (G major) they don't deny (C major)
Our law (D major) and justice in this land (G major)
God knows (C major) I am not guilty
(G major) That I'm carrying another (D major) 's load
I asked (G major) for help and (F major) none was (C major) given
I must (D major) journey on down the road (G major)
Oh (C major) Lord, I'm not a mur (G major) derer
My God, the life of (C major) man (D major)
How can (G major) they break the
Ten (C major) Commandments
Just to carry (D major) out their plan (G major)
If their object in this (C major) killing
is to teach (G major) a lesson (D major) stern
Why not (G major) have their killings public (C major)
so (D major) the whole wide world can learn (G major)
Bring your (C major) mothers, bring your sis (G major) ters,
bring your women, folks, to see (D major)
How this so (G major) -called Christian na (C major) tion
shames our Lord (D major) from Galilee (G major)
I can (C major) see that lonesome death (G major) cabin
That covers multitudes of (D major) yon
Oh, it look (G major) s as though the (C major) killer
Is (D major) ashamed of those he killed (G major)
I'm (C major) not afraid of (G major) death,
for I know just where I (D major) stand
But I'd like (G major) to see some (F major) justice (C major)
in this ungodly, (D major) land (G major)
Forgive (C major) them, that kill (G major) me
May they never suffer (D major) pain
Thou shalt (G major) not kill the
stern (C major) commandment
Them (D major) lender ears must ring (G major)
Now I (C major) hate to leave my loved (G major) ones,
for they are so dear to me (D major)
This song (G major) is my last letter, (C major)
is (D major) the last of our love, my king
(G major)
