N.C.
[Verse 1]
N.C.
Down in old Savannah,
N.C.
Shots rang through the night,
N.C.
A man lies pistol whipped in the corner,
N.C.
A cop crumbles in the streaking light.
[Verse 2]
G Dm
Now they see me molly-hawking over the haystack now,
G Dm
See me swimming with a bow-legged hound,
G Dm
Detective man, he do what he got to do,
E
When a black man shoot a white man down.
[Verse 3]
Am
Now they want retribution,
Am
Don't like trouble of this kind,
Dm
They round up all the witnesses and suspects,
Am
And accuse them of lesser crimes.
[Verse 4]
G Dm
And now they see me molly-hawking over the haystack now,
G Dm
See me swimming with a bow-legged hound,
G Dm
Detective man, he do what he got to do,
Esus4 E
When a black man shoot a white man down.
[Verse 5]
Am
So now we calling on Lady of Justice,
F
Tell her we need her medicine,
Dm
I'm about to be killed by the state of Georgia,
Am
And it don't matter if I'm innocent.
[Verse 6]
F
Oh, and the pieces were gone,
F
Little city got it wrong,
Dm Dm*
It's just a trial that should not please the court.
[Verse 7]
N.C.
Whoa, jumping Jehoshaphat,
N.C.
Where you gonna turn?
Dm
The system has done failed you,
Am
And it'll fail the next hang-bird.
[Verse 8]
G Dm
All we're asking is for a true day in court,
G Dm
After nineteen years on the death row bed,
G Dm
Seven of nine say they gave false witness at the time,
E
But the judge, he still want me dead.
[Instrumental]
Am F Dm
Am F Dm E
[Verse 9]
Am
'Cause there was no physical weapon,
F
No murder evidence, no appeal, no clemency,
Dm
Judge said willing I was only fit for killing,
Am
Unworthy to believe in God or him in me.
[Verse 10]
F
Oh, and of pardons and paroles,
F
No one ever seems to know,
Dm
It's just a black hole of expediency,
Dm Am
But I'm about to be killed by the state of Georgia,
E
No, it don't look good for me.
[Outro]

Am Am C Am Am G Am
'Cause I'm about to be,
Am Am C Am Am G Am
'Cause I'm about to be killed.
