[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
G C G
All night long , I tried, but couldn't sleep
C G G7
Tried to be a man, tried not to weep
C D7 G
Now, I hear the turning of the key
C G
Silently, the guard motions to me
[Verse 2]
G C G
Now, I realize the end is near
C G G7
And I find I can't control my fear
C D7 G
As I pass the guard, I start to cry
C G G7
And I whisper, "I don't want to die"
[Bridge]
C C7
Then, from Death Row comes a whisper
F
"Charlie, be a man"
D7
Can I scream, "Just wait 'til your turn
G7
Then, see if you can"
[Verse 3]
G C G
Down the hall, they push and carry me
C G G7
Blind with fright and tears won't let me see
C D7 G
Through a door and then, I stop and stare
C G E7
'Cause I see it, there it is, the chair
[Verse 4]
A D A
Then, they strap me in and turn to leave
D A A7
And the Prison Chaplain says, "Believe
D E7 A
Faith in God will cause Him to forgive"
D A A7
I have faith, but still, I wanna live
[Bridge]
D
Suddenly, I'm paralized
G
This must be the end
E7
My body jerks and trembles
A7
And they turn it on again
[Verse 5]
A D A
As quickly as it came, the pain is gone
D A A7
I hear music, someone sings a song
D E7 A
Suddenly, I seem to float through air
D A
Something's wrong, 'cause I'm still in the chair
[Verse 6]
A D A
In the room, there's hardly any light
D A A7
Now I see a doctor dressed in white
D E7 A
I hear every word that's plainly said
D A
Did I hear him say, "This man is dead"
[Outro]
G A G D A
Did I hear him say, "This man is dead"
