[Verse 1]
F
Come all you tender Christians
C
Wherever you may be
And likewise pay attention
F
To these few lines from me.
I was down at the depot
C
To make my getaway
And Providence being against me,
F
It proved to be too late.
[Verse 2]
F
I tried to play off insane
C
But found it would not do;
The people all against me,
F
It proved to make no show.
Judge Cox he passed the sentence,
C
The clerk he wrote it down,
On the thirtieth day of June
F
To die I was condemned.
[Verse 3]
F
My name is Charles Guiteau,
C
My name I'll never deny,
To leave my aged parents
F
To sorrow and to die.
But little did I think
C
While in my youthful bloom
I'd be carried to the scaffold
F
To meet my fatal doom.
[Verse 4]
F
My sister came in prison
C
To bid her last farewell.
She threw her arms around me;
F
She wept most bitterly.
She said, "My loving brother,
C
Today you must die
For the murder of James A. Garfield
F
Upon the scaffold high."
[Verse 5]
F
And now I mount the scaffold
C
To bid you all adieu,
The hangman now is waiting,
F
It's a quarter after two.
The black cap is o'er my face,
C
No longer can I see,
But when I'm dead and buried,
F
Dear Lord, remember me.
